Twenty-four scholars from different universities, churches, and continents gathered in New York at Easter 2003 for the "Redemption Summit." There is a fruitful dialogue between experts in a wide range of areas and the international reputation of participants reflects and guarantees the high quality of this joint work. The result is a well researched, skillfully argued, and, at times, provocative volume on the central Christian belief: the redemption of human beings through Jesus Christ.
