At Home with God: How the Cross Transforms Us

Summary

Many faithful Christians find themselves wrestling with their understanding of the atonement, Christ's work on the cross to reconcile us with God. Some struggle with inherited theologies that emphasize wrath, violence, and transaction; some have grown numb to the cross altogether. At Home with God offers a refreshing alternative: a spacious, imaginative pilgrimage that invites you into the mystery of the atonement and the many ways it reveals God's love.

In this contemplative and accessible book, pastor Jason G. Edwards presents a creative framework for understanding atonement by taking you on a poetic journey through the many rooms of a house. With each chapter presenting a new room that uniquely explains how the cross transforms discipleship, At Home with God invites you to embrace the multidimensional beauty of Christ's love.

What you'll find in At Home with God:

• A comprehensive yet accessible exploration of redemption
• Scriptural grounding complemented by insights from theological voices from throughout church history
• A prayer and poem to conclude each chapter, inviting you into deeper spiritual reflection

For those who carry questions, for those seeking healing, and for those longing to be rooted in something true, this book invites you into a sacred dwelling where justice and mercy meet, a space where sorrow is held, love is poured, and God makes room for us all.
