In this groundbreaking work in theological ethics, David Gushee explores the profound implications of the Reformation for our understanding of God, the human person, and the world. Gushee argues that the Reformation's emphasis on the sovereignty of God and the sinfulness of humanity has led to a distorted view of God as a distant and wrathful judge, and of humanity as inherently evil.

Gushee offers a compelling alternative vision of God as a loving and merciful Father, and of humanity as created in the image of God and called to live in communion with God and with one another. This vision, he argues, has profound implications for our understanding of sin, salvation, and the Christian life.

The Remaking of Liberal Theology is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of Christianity. Gushee's insights are both timely and provocative, and they offer a fresh perspective on the central questions of Christian faith.
