Ancient Insights for Modern Life
LANE, JENNIFER C
Finding Christ in the Covenant Path offers a fresh but faithful focus on the journey of covenant discipleship through the double lens of ancient words and medieval images. The first part of the book helps us better understand Christ's identity as our Redeemer by exploring the ancient words that connect covenants, redemption, worship, the presence of the Lord, and sitting down enthroned in God's presence as his children and heirs. The second part explores the price Christ paid to redeem us. It uses medieval devotional images, particularly of Christ and his Atonement, to help us more clearly behold Christ's love and mercy in the gospel ordinances. With scriptural analysis and personal stories of finding Christ in the covenant path amid modern challenges, the book illuminates the connections between covenants, ordinances, and Christ's Atonement to help us more fully rely on our Redeemer and trust the ransom price he paid.
