I’m working on a paper for the upcoming Theological Conference on Atonement and I re-listened to Dale Tuggy’s interview with Joshua Thurlow in his Trinities podcast. Thurow’s “Communal Substitutionary Atonement” theory fascinates me. If you’ve ever puzzled over the question, “Why did Jesus have to die?” or “What did Jesus’ death accomplish?” then give these podcasts a listen.
