Imagine: What Has Christ Done for Us?

Paul Ryan

Calvin Symposium on Worship 2008

How do Christ’s life, death, and resurrection save us? What poetic imagination do we use to grasp his saving work? Scattered throughout our hymns, prayers, and liturgies are metaphors used to comprehend and express Christ’s atonement. But so often we limit our experience to just one or two images. In this workshop we will survey five images of the atonement and explore how we might more fully celebrate how salvation comes through Jesus Christ.
