BOOK REVIEW: GREGORY A. BOYD. CROSS VISION: HOW THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS MAKES SENSE OF OLD TESTAMENT VIOLENCE

by PAUL WELLS in Vol. 5 No. 1 / Apr 2019

DOI: https://doi.org/10.35285/ucc5.1.2019.rev4



Gregory Boyd is a theologian and senior pastor in the Twin Cities. This book follows up on his epic two-volume Crucifixion and the Warrior God. While more accessible than the major work, its more concise presentation of the subject will be enough to satisfy most readers. As one might expect, the subject arises out of theological and hermeneutical engagement with the Old Testament narrative and pastoral concerns.
