  A much needed work on what Christ accomplished at the cross and how that actually meets me in my everyday need.

  A concise, clear, and compelling look at the atonement of Jesus Christ. Zahl takes a very familiar concept to Christians, Christ died for our sins, and reveals how it is the answer to our greatest fears. He provides very helpful definitions of key theological terms like the law, atonement, justification by faith, imputation, etc. He shows how the solutions we seek outside of the atonement ultimately fail. I would recommend this book to any Christian and those who may not be Christian but are open to considering the unique message of the gospel of Christ.

  Awesome book except for one serious theological problem -- the suggestion that God had to atone for His own making the world imperfect, as if it were a mistake. I read up on some other theologians on this idea, and I decided to go with the judgment that Zahl gets most everything right, but not this. So with that caveat, I recommend this as a wonderful exploration of the nature of Christ's sacrifice for us.

  Livro fraquinho. As posições são apresentadas sem profundidade e algumas vezes até sem muito sentido. As respostas são aguadas e muitas vezes parece que cada um adoraria da maneira do outro. Até em posições totalmente diferentes as repostas são mais politicamente corretas. Geralmente esses livros de debates são bons, mas esse não é o caso. Creio que a causa da falta de qualidade se deu pela escolha dos participantes. Não conhecia nenhum, mas com certeza tem gente melhor pra falar desse tema.

  The Gospel is presented from a more mainstream and philosophical standpoint. From a counseling standpoint, this is a valuable asset. Zahl digs deep to reach the true source of pain, anger, and fear, and how the Cross specifically deals with those things. Short and powerful read.

  Good book with a heavy counseling approach to it (you will feel like you are laying on a couch talking about your mother). The money chapter, which gets 5 stars on its own, is the "Christ Died for our Sins" chapter. The book hinges on this chapter really, and left me wanting more of this.

  Great quick read but very powerful. The author really gets people and understands where our hope lies!
