GOD?S LOVE STORY

God's Love Story: A Canonical Telling traces the metaphorical theme of God's love relationship(s) that spans the entire Bible. God lovingly pursues humankind in relationship that is robustly satisfying and salvific. Like many relationships, God's love story with God's people is both transcendent and tragic, messy and mercy-filled, raw and redemptive. Not merely a series of events relegated to the past, God's love story is an ongoing, present phenomenon--a salvation-relationship into which God invites all peoples to (collectively) be the spouse of God.
