S. Lewis contemplates the central event at the heart of the Christian faith--Jesus' crucifixion--arguing that the Protestant Reformation did not go far enough in transforming our understanding of its meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Day the Revolution Began\u003c\/em\u003e, N. T. Wright once again challenges commonly held Christian beliefs as he did in his acclaimed \u003cem\u003eSurprised by Hope\u003c\/em\u003e. Demonstrating the rigorous intellect and breathtaking knowledge that have long defined his work, Wright argues that Jesus' death on the cross was not only to absolve us of our sins; it was actually the beginning of a revolution commissioning the Christian faithful to a new vocation--a royal priesthood responsible for restoring and reconciling all of God's creation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWright argues that Jesus' crucifixion must be understood within the much larger story of God's purposes to bring heaven and earth together. \u003cem\u003eThe Day the Revolution Began\u003c\/em\u003e offers a grand picture of Jesus' sacrifice and its full significance for the Christian faith, inspiring believers with a renewed sense of mission, purpose, and hope, and reminding them of the crucial role the Christian faith must play in protecting and shaping the future of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e N.
