Download Executing Grace: How the Death Penalty Killed Jesus and Why It's Killing Us AudioBook Free
In this reasoned exploration of justice, retribution, and redemption, the champion of the new monastic movements, popular loudspeaker, and author of the best-selling The Irresistible Revolution offers a robust and persuasive charm for the abolition of the death penalty. The Bible says an attention for an attention. But is the state's taking of lives true - or even functional - abuse for convicted prisoners? In this thought-provoking work, Shane Claiborne explores the problem of the death penalty and the comparison between punitive justice and restorative justice, questioning our notions of fairness, revenge, and absolution. Utilizing a historical zoom lens to style his discussion, Claiborne draws on testimonies and examples from Scripture showing how the death penalty is not the perfect of justice that lots of believe. Not merely is a life lost; so, too, is the likelihood of mercy and grace. In Executing Elegance, he reminds us of the divine vitality of forgiveness and evokes the fundamental truth of the Gospel - that nobody, even a legal, is beyond redemption.
