“Where in Scripture is the love of Christ most greatly manifested?…. It’s manifested in the sufferings, in supremely the cross-work of Christ. Isn’t that what all the New Testament writers come back to again and again and again?….

"Bono (of U2) says the power of art is especially seen when tragedy strikes. He fell in love with music when his mother tragically died.

It was an event that changed his life forever and motivates him to touch the families of Manchester and the rest of the world with his music.
