Steve Chalke Quotes

• In The Lost Message of Jesus I claim that penal substitution is tantamount to 'child abuse - a vengeful Father punishing his Son for an offence he has not even committed.' Though the sheer bluntness of this imagery (not original to me of course) might shock some, in truth, it is only a stark 'unmasking' of the violent, pre-Christian thinking behind such a theology.

• En otoño de 2012 dirigí un servicio de dedicación y bendición tras la unión civil de dos maravillosos cristianos homosexuales. ¿Por qué? No para cuestionar la concepción tradicional del matrimonio, ni mucho menos, sino para ofrecer a estas personas lo que yo ofrecería a otras: el amor y el apoyo de nuestra iglesia local.
