Traditionally, the fault lines in biblical theology run between the understanding of whether the field is a purely descriptive endeavor, produces a normative theology, or tries to achieve both. However, is this the only grid we should use to approach biblical theology? Should practicing it not rather foremost result in a transformative experience that encompasses and integrates both Testaments? Two Testaments, One Story explores the foundation for a transformative panbiblical theology that empowers believers to live a consistent and compelling life as Christ-followers and global Christians in a pluralistic world. Join the author in this journey, from the preparation work at the drawing board through the extensive study of scripture to constructing the biblical story world's literary and theological framework. Central to this quest are the concepts of cultural memory and remembrance culture and identifying the Bible's critical root stories. Their workup establishes the road to unlocking scripture's story world. Discover the path to a transformative panbiblical theology in Two Testaments, One Story.
