A series of short talks on theological topics from a wide variety of Christian professors, pastors, speakers, and theologians.
While “Jesus saves” remains the central claim of Christianity, the ensuing question—How?—demands attention. How exactly does a brutal and shameful crucifixion bring salvation? Why does the Bible call it good news, and why should we?
