387 | Percolating on Faith | Atonement

The word "atonement" often comes with a lot of theological assumptions about what is being discussed. However, did you know that the idea that God sent Jesus to die for our sins is only one out of many ways to view Jesus' death and resurrection? Today, we are looking at some alternative theological understandings that are rooted deeply in Christian tradition, history, and the belief that God is love.  Chvala-Smith, Theologies of Atonement-Some Historic Christian ModelsHost: Carla LongGuest: Tony and Charmaine Chvala- SmithThanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.
