...“I am delighted to walk this journey in the Way with Michele Hershberger as she explores what it means to be saved, a journey that, interestingly enough, starts on her front porch. Michele is a gifted storyteller. This simple breakdown of our complex faith is a must-read for every Anabaptist Christian and an excellent tool to help guide others in our faith.”Glen Guyton, executive director of Mennonite Church USA
“In this installment of The Jesus Way series, Michele Hershberger addresses the simple question, Why did Jesus die?, with remarkably clear (but not simplistic) responses that acknowledge the complexity around atonement theology. She brings the richness of Anabaptism to the table, honoring that tradition with an irenic spirit rather than the polemics that often dominate the atonement wars. A highly usable study tool!”Brad Jersak, author of A More Christlike Way
Peter Dula, associate professor of religion and culture at Eastern Mennonite University“For years Michele Hershberger’s students have raved about her teaching. Reading this book, those of us not lucky enough to have been in her classroom can see why. Her patient and careful attention to a vast range of scriptural images and metaphors elevates this book far above the theoretical abstraction and ideological polemic of most recent books on atonement theology. Pastors, teachers, and students of theology are deeply in her debt.”
