The Passion gets glossed over too much, because we're quick to look to the Resurrection or we hang crosses in our homes without the Corpus. We don't want to see our Savior depicted in this manner, because it's easier to ignore the reality of the event. When we do this, we fail to acknowledge the Cross and how Christ Crucified suffered for our fallen humanity.
"Keep your eyes on the crucifix, for Jesus without the cross is a man without a mission, and the cross without Jesus is a burden without a reliever."
