Could there be more to the meaning of the crucifixion than some kind of trade off deal with God--Jesus suffering to humankind does not have to? A mirador is a viewing point, and Steve Dixon's Mirador aims to provide different perspectives on the cross that could change the reader's view of the world as they look out from Calvary. He explores thirty-six ways that the death of Jesus on the cross can benefit humanity, each outlined in a brief reflection, followed by two short, accessible poems. The first reflects a contemporary situation and the second draws on biblical narratives associated with the passion. Both expand on the theme of the reflection. The aim is to bring Bible stories into contemporary lived experience and vice versa. The material is set out in a Lent course format of six weeks of six days each but could be used at any time by groups or individuals wanting to delve more deeply into the wealth of significances to be found in the central Christian story of the crucifixion.
