Restoring the Story
SCM Press (Verlag)
978-0-334-06619-4 (ISBN)
There is a quiet crisis of confidence in many Western churches. Confusion, debates and changing sensibilities have thrown doubt on whether one of our central doctrines can be reliably communicated as “good news” today. This book approaches atonement through story, allowing imagination to illuminate the multi-faceted meanings in Christ’s atoning work, and exploring how those rich stories can be good news for the complex issues of our day.
The Ven. Dr Anne van Gend is Ministry Educator for the Anglican Diocese of Dunedin, New Zealand.
