Hardback. Condizione: Good. The popular Patheos blogger wants to restore the cross as primarily a symbol of God's overwhelming love for us and to rescue Christians from the shame and guilt from seeing our situation as "sinners in the hands of an angry God," which was an invention of the medieval church and became enshrined as orthodox Christianity. Many Christians believe that God the Father demanded his only Son die a cruel, gruesome death to appease His wrath, since humanity is so irredeemably sinful and therefore repugnant to God. Tony Jones, popular progressive Christian blogger, author, and scholar, argues that this understanding is actually a medieval invention and not what the Bible really teaches. He looks beyond medieval convictions and liberates how we see Jesus's death on the cross from this restrictive paradigm. Christians today must transcend the shame and guilt that have shaped conceptions of the human soul and made us fearful of God, and replace them with love, grace, and joyfulness, which better expresses what the cross is really about. How we understand the cross reflects directly what kind of God we worship. By letting go of the wrathful God who cannot stand to be in our presence unless he pretends to see Jesus in our place, we discover the biblical God who reaches out to love and embrace us while "we were yet sinners." Jones offers a positive, loving, inclusive interpretation of the faith that is both challenging and inspiring. Did God Kill Jesus? is essential reading for modern Christians.…

If God isn't an angry judge demanding a payment, then what really happened on the cross? A Journey Through Church History: Uncover how the idea of a wrathful God is a medieval invention and explore the diverse, love-centered views of the early church fathers. Fresh Biblical Interpretation: Move beyond a surface reading to see what the Gospels and Paul actually say about the crucifixion--and what they don't. Beyond Penal Substitution: Systematically examine the historical theories of atonement, from the Victory model to the Mirror model, to find a richer, more life-giving understanding of the cross. A Theology of God's Love: Replace fear, shame, and guilt with a robust vision of a God who meets us not with anger, but with overwhelming grace and radical solidarity.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. What can we know about the practices of the early church? The Didache is the most important book you've never read, begins Tony Jones, in this engaging study.The Didache is an early handbook of an anonymous Christian community, likely written before some of the New Testament books were written. It spells out a way of life for Jesus-followers that includes instruction on how to treat one another, how to practice the Eucharist, and how to take in wandering prophets. In The Teaching of the Twelve, Jones unpacks the ancient document, and he traces the life of a small house church in Missouri that is trying to live according to its precepts. Readers will find The Teaching of the Twelve inspirational and challenging, and they will discover a unique window into the life of the very earliest followers of Jesus the Christ. A new, contemporary English translation of the Didache is included.…
