Book Reviews of The Cross in Our Context: Jesus and the Suffering World

Book Review: 75% Brilliant Insight -25% Confusion
Summary: 3 Stars

I have been really moved by this book. I have been challenged to entirely alter my engagement with the world around me. Hall's insights are clearly encouraging to anyone wanting to engage with society around them. The last 25% Hall goes off the rails. He questions the sayings of Christ, the authority of the Bible, and Gods final revelation of him self through his Son. A universalist in every way.
