Description
"Redeeming Power explores God's use of power in the creation stories of Genesis and probes what lessons these hold for leaders today. This book shows how Jesus was formed by the Jewish belief in the God of Genesis who exercised power not as a manipulative force in short supply, but as an abundant good meant to be shared and put to use for the sake of bringing a harmony, like Eden, "in which all creation can find a home.""--
