Inhalt:

One of today's leading Christian theologians challenges the church to be captured afresh by the immeasurable height, depth, and breadth of God's salvation. "This is Christian theology of the highest quality--engaging and biblical, shaped by the rich resources of Christian tradition and personal experience. The Breadth of Salvation is the work of an outstanding preacher, theologian, and disciple." --David Wilkinson, St. John's College, Durham University "With stories, examples, clarity, and a brimming personal faith, Tom Greggs tells us of the sheer abundance of God, which overwhelms our petty models of salvation, our divisiveness, and our easy, conventional expectations. This is a profound book, but it is entirely readable." --Iain R. Torrance, Princeton Theological Seminary (emeritus) "This is an important resource for Christians who want to grasp the breadth and depth of salvation--and who perhaps have begun to wonder if the good news of the gospel is truly good news for the world. While Christians tend to mistake belief in models and theories of atonement for salvation itself, Greggs offers a holistic picture of salvation that is surprising, radically inclusive, and worthy of hope." --Jennifer M. McBride, author of Radical Discipleship: A Liturgical Politics of the Gospel "Tom Greggs underlines the wideness in God's mercy in hopes of decompartmentalizing our many distinct conceptions of God. While holding firmly to the anchor of God's grace, he breaks down the confining wall of human distinctions in order to shine a light on the universal reach of God's one Interrupter of human self-absorption, who is Christ. Tom's is a synthetic theology that unbinds straitjackets in favor of wonder." --Paul F. M. Zahl, Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry (emeritus) "The question of what it means to be saved is complex, fraught, and sometimes divisive. Often we try to keep our understanding of salvation within narrow parameters that have a tendency to limit God's grace. Greggs clarifies and expands our understanding of salvation in ways that open us up to the fullness of God's wondrous gift. This book is a gift to the church and to those disciples who seek to live out salvation in ways that are full, faithful, and transformative." --John Swinton, King's College, University of Aberdeen
