Tim Tebow

And so I just get on this thought in my head and it just won't leave me.

And a couple of days later, me and Wyatt and Kevin who are on our team, we fly to go preach at an event.

And on our way there, I just share very emotionally that,

uh, what I was thinking about and why it starts just jotting it down and voice recording.

We kind of talk and I don't know, I don't know if I want to do anything with this.

It's just a thought that you feel like convicted that I don't know what to do.

I just, I just think I'm supposed to share this with somebody.

And so we don't know anything of what we want to do, but we just start kind of jotting down these thoughts.

And I don't know if it's a children's book, if it's a grown-up book, whatever.

It's a changing of perspective that I feel like God was challenging me and my perspective of how I was thinking about just in my tenderness to Calvary's cross, to tenderness to the love of God.

And so we ended up...

going back and telling the story of when this tree was first a little seed and then, um, growing up and blossoming and then with hopes and dreams of maybe being turned into a door or a table or a throne.

And then those dreams being dashed, um, when it's, it's, you know, um, cut into and then made into a cross, uh, literally, uh, uh,

an instrument of shame for excruciating pain.

Like in history, the cross was made as an instrument of torture and shame and guilt that was literally created for excruciating pain.

That is a symbol for all of these terrible things.

And now this cross with these dreams is made into that, not realizing that one day he was going to be a throne and it was gonna be a disfigured throne,

but a throne that was gonna hold up the King of Kings and that it was gonna be a doorway.

Because of what Jesus did, it was gonna be part of that doorway for us to get into heaven because of the love of God.

And I could only think just when I was thinking about this,
