What if the majority Christian view concerning the gospel is not only wrong, but responsible for the rejection of Christian faith by so many today? If your idea of the gospel is that God’s fundamental disposition toward you is angry judgment, but Jesus came to die on the cross to change God’s mind about you, then Andrew Callander wants you to know the truth. God’s fundamental disposition toward you, and all humanity, is eternal lovingkindness, and the reason Jesus came was to change our minds about God. In company with biblical scholars like David Bentley Hart, contemplative activists like Richard Rohr, and progressive thinkers like Brian McLaren, Callander laments how centuries of Christian energy have been wasted determining and policing religious boundary lines. He wants the reader to be assured that in Jesus Christ, God has destroyed all barriers that stand in the way of our relationship with God. Callander’s key theme is that humanity is already enfolded within God’s eternal love and that our great task is not to find God’s love, but awaken to the reality that the God of love has already found us–and then apply this to our relationships with others and with creation.
