Advance Praise
“In this delightful work, Adam Johnson draws us deep into the wonders of the doctrine of the atonement. Eschewing partisan efforts that tell us what to think on the subject, Johnson guides us instead to reflect upon how we think about the atonement and how it relates to Christian life and worship. In the process, he sheds new light on the manifold riches of Scripture and the plentiful insights of tradition, offering welcome counsel both theological and spiritual.”—Paul T. Nimmo, King’s Chair of Systematic Theology, University of Aberdeen
“Today’s foremost scholar of the atonement has distilled his extensive expertise into pure theological nectar. As Johnson introduces creedal, biblical, and historical insights and busts tenacious myths, he also writes with astonishing creativity, advancing our understanding in exciting and persuasive new directions, all with a view to building up the church. Anyone interested in the meaning of Christ’s death and resurrection—whether professor, student, pastor, or person in the pew—will find rich nourishment here.”—Han-luen Kantzer Komline, Marvin and Jerene DeWitt Professor of Theology and Church History, Western Theological Seminary, Holland, Michigan
“Adam Johnson is a simultaneously contemplative and passionate guide to atonement theology. His wide-ranging explorations encourage those of us who are at home in traditional Protestant soteriology to engage with neighboring concepts like healing, forgiveness, and other aspects of the Holy Spirit’s reconciling work.”—Daniel J. Treier, Knoedler Professor of Theology, Wheaton College
