Description
What if all we’ve been taught about Jesus’s death misses the point?
Many of us find ourselves drawn to the stories of Jesus but turned off by traditional interpretations of his death—ideas that turn God into a cosmic debt collector demanding violent payment for human sin. Ideas that cause us to see ourselves and others through the lens of condemnation.
The Invitation offers a very different understanding. What if love, not divine wrath, was at the center of Jesus’s death? Drawing from the work of N.T. Wright, open and relational theology, and historical understandings of the atonement, this book reveals Jesus’s death not as punishment, but as the ultimate invitation into healing and transformation. More than a ticket to heaven, this is an understanding of Jesus that heals, liberates, and matters for how we live today.
