He Descended into Hell


A little late with this one. The axe image obviously reflects the previous tree and stump ideas, but also tied into a theme from the sermon: that Jesus took on death and hell intentionally. They were his purpose, not something he suffered through in order to emerge at a better place. This way, we can think of Christ as confronting death and hell armed for battle.

By the way, if anyone is looking for an expensive, impractical, and probably dangerous gift for me, I've always wanted an axe named COURAGE. Matt wants one too.

No matter how many times I ask, NOBODY seems to want to buy me a $300 hand-painted axe. What's not to like there?
