For Christians questioning traditional atonement theories

Challenges violent views of God and atonement

You will gain a deeper understanding of God's forgiveness

Discover a transformative perspective on salvation and the cross in Sharon Baker's Executing God.
Why did God have to murder his only son to pay our debts? What kind of vengeful, violent God can only be satisfied by vicarious blood atonement? In Executing God, theologian Sharon Baker presents a biblically based and theologically sound critique of popular theories of the atonement. Concerned about the number of acts of violence performed in the name of God, Baker challenges cultural assumptions about the death of Jesus and its meaning to Christians. She ultimately offers a constructive alternate view of atonement based on God's forgiveness that opens up salvation to a wider group of people.
