The Face of Forgiveness

Theology

“Phil Jamieson's The Face of Forgiveness offers a helpful theological distinction between guilt and shame. Jamieson effectively unveils some of the limitations of our therapeutic methods in dealing with the reality of our sin and brokenness and redirects us through a trinitarian perspective to a more wholistic model of healing. In particular, his description of atonement theories and exegesis of the cross is refreshing in giving substantive and spiritual impetus to the pastoral task of reconciliation. This book contains the necessary blend of prophetic and pastoral guidance to challenge and deepen our faith practice in the gospel work of redemptive healing.”
