The Back Side of the Cross

Theology

“Graphic and heartbreaking yet hopeful, practical help for the church striving to be God’s incarnate presence to those who have suffered unspeakable cruelty and abuse at the hands of others—a thoughtful exposition of atonement theories, forgiveness, and encouragement. As a hospital chaplain, this book has helped me transcend my own weak ‘but God is good’ conclusions and come to sound biblical answers inspiring healing and hope—for myself and those I serve.”
