Taking On the Cross – Edited by F. Timothy Moore
from Good Faith Reads · host Good Faith Media
The Alliance of Baptists has been a progressive voice for thirty-five years, pushing the boundaries of Christianity towards anti-racism, LGBTQ+ inclusion, and gender equity in ministry. In Taking on the Cross, the Alliance gathers a diverse group of Baptist pastors, writers, and theologians who critically question substitutionary atonement theology—that Jesus died on the cross for humanity’s sins—and offers pathways for reimagining the meaning of Jesus’ life and death. The book begins with biblical and theological essays from multiple perspectives, then offers church resources—liturgy and faith formation—and finishes with a section on tools for the ministries of pastoral care and social justice. Each chapter concludes with questions that will make Taking on the Cross a favorite for book clubs, Sunday school classes, and small group discussions. Learn more at GoodFaithMedia.org.
