Micro Theology

At-One-Ment dismantles centuries of harmful atonement theology while unveiling a breathtaking vision of God's uncontrolling, non-violent love; one that transforms rather than punishes. Through deeply personal insights and rigorous theological exploration, discover how Jesus didn't die to satisfy God's wrath, but to show us we were never separate from the divine in the rst place. Prepare to have your understanding of salvation, forgiveness, and God's very nature turned upside down-in the most beautiful way possible. --I used to believe that God sacrificed himself to himself to save humanity from himself. But what if instead God was at one with Jesus dying on the cross and what if God is at one with us when we suffer? Jonathan Foster's "at-one-ment" is exactly just that! -Mason Mennenga, YouTuber and podcast host of A People's Theology --What Jonathan gives us with this writing is a way to begin to disentangle violence from our religion and in the day and age we live in there may be nothing more important. -Dana Hicks, author of Quest for Thin Places: How to Find Spirituality after Deconstruction --Jonathan Foster masterfully distills profound mysteries of the divine into accessible, soul-shaping wisdom for our liminal age. His writing, like a well in the desert, offers grounded nourishment to those dwelling in spiritual thresholds, revealing grace not as abstract theory but as embodied belonging. This is essential micro-theology for anyone hungry to encounter the sacred in the tension of transformation. -Thomas Rundel, host of the Liminal Living Podcast
