Publisher's Synopsis
In this second volume, scholars and church leaders from across the globe expound seven biblical metaphors - yeast, salt, light, people, temple, body and ambassadors, and people of God - that are foundational for our understanding of the church today. From the gospels, the Pauline epistles, and the Petrine letters, the authors help readers to engage with the conceptual content of metaphors and how they shape our experiences and attitudes, so we can flesh them out for application in our own contexts.
