About this listen

“The sign of the cross has become an image of fear for many Jews who remember how often it has been associated with their persecution and suffering. There are Jewish and Christian thinkers who maintain that the only real solution to this problem is a root-and-branch excision of atonement theology from Christianity itself. James Carroll puts it in typically unequivocal terms: "The cross must be reimagined, and deemphasized, as a Christian symbol." Belief in the atonement stands indicted for linking Christian salvation with demonization of Jews.” That was a quote from Mark Heim’s book ‘Saved From Sacrifice’ that I shared this past week & it started a firestorm in group discussion. Is the cross a relevant symbol for Christian faith today? What really matters about the cross in human atonement & salvation?
