Restoring the Story

Are we getting too squeamish about the atonement? 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 "e;good news"e; 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.
