Cross Purposes: Incarnational Atonement, Renewal & Communal Salvation

What is the place of violence inside the the New Creation God is bringing? That is the 'heart question' explored within Cross Purposes. Is God ever angry? If so, how and at what? Us? If God is not angry what does the Trinity of God intend to do about all the violence surrounding the human experience? Deeply unsatisfied with traditional theories of what Jesus was doing on a Roman cross 2000 years ago, Terry explores a restoration theology that takes seriously our wounded spaces, our racism, our violence and the passionate God we see in Israel; a God who in Jesus is fully present and asks us to be—present, that is—with him as he walks among us in the 21st century.
