A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE "CROSS OF PASSION"
Arizona Artist Jim Roark recently became certified as a hospital chaplain. Sitting in the head chaplain's office he noticed the beautiful silver-gold cross the head chaplain was wearing. At the same time the head chaplain was explaining to Jim that he needed to wear a cross to identify himself as a chaplain while on duty at the hospital. At the same time, Jim felt the Lord in His Sweet Still Voice say to him...
"Jesus did not die on a silver-and-gold-plated cross, He died on two pieces of dirty, rugged old wood!"...
So Jim went home to his studio, did research and designed a miniture replica of the wooden cross on which Jesus was crucified! Once he wore it, everyone admired it and wanted one...thus was born... the "Cross of Passion!"
