Atonement In Hosea And The Prodigal Son: Relationality As Personhood And The Being Of God, Steve Sherwood
Atonement In Hosea And The Prodigal Son: Relationality As Personhood And The Being Of God, Steve Sherwood
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Excerpt from Introduction: "My project will provide a survey of traditional atonement metaphors, with a particular emphasis upon contrasting penal substitution with a covenantal relational understanding of the atonement, and will then posit that a covenantal relational approach is ideal for resonance with a postmodern audience.
I will seek to determine whether any single biblical metaphor or cluster of metaphors provides an interpretive matrix for all discussion of the atonement in a way that is both biblically faithful and conceptually accessible to a postmodern world. I contend that atonement discussions in typical evangelical contexts may be both biblically insufficient and …

Prostitutes, Prodigals And The Story Of God's Embrace, Steve Sherwood

Excerpt: "This book has been stewing inside of me for a long time.

Second, new approaches to John’s composition have emerged, followed by a larger set of inquiries as to the Johannine tradition’s relation to parallel traditions. This has been accompanied by a fourth interest: the history of the Johannine situation. Fifth, new literary studies have posed new horizons for interpretation, and sixth, theories continue to abound on the identity of the Beloved Disciple. A seventh development involves new ways of …
From One Dialogue To Another: Johannine Polyvalence From Origins To Receptions, Paul N. Anderson
From One Dialogue To Another: Johannine Polyvalence From Origins To Receptions, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Throughout the ages, one of the primary mistakes committed in studying the Gospel of John has been to read the text monologically instead of dialogically. This error has often led some readers of the Fourth Gospel to “get it wrong,” needing correction by later interpreters. Put otherwise, many an ecumenical council or more nuanced interpretation has restored the tension that had been lost by interpreters who had sided with one aspect of John’s witness without considering another. Likewise, one flaw of modern literary-critical theories is that they have often sought to ascribe the sources of the Fourth Gospel’s theological tensions …
