you not even read what

Despite it being in Oprah's book Club, I urge everyone to read Cormac McCarthy's The Road. It is, flat out, one of the best books I've read in a few years. You can check out my full review if you find yourself so inclined. I started the book and had to put it down as I imagined my fella and me as protagonists. It wrecked me. The book discusses what a father would do for his son, and the desperate straits one might be driven to out of love.

The allusion to the finished work of the cross is pretty clear. You want to see desperate love, you want to see the extent to which a loving Father might go to save His children, friend, look no farther than those intersecting sticks. They tell you all you need to know.
