Who We Were Meant to Be is an interesting title for a book that tells us who we are in Christ. Matthew Burden has made biblical theology readable and understandable. Local church study groups ought to read and wrestle the content and themes of this book. --Alfred J. Fletcher, Executive Minister of the American Baptist Churches of Maine As a long-time pastoral theologian, when I see books like Who We Were Meant to Be, I am filled with hope. . . . Burden gently but firmly rejects the kind of 'minimalist' soteriology that too often is the foundation of how Christians interpret their salvation. He takes readers into the vast magnitude of God's reconciling work to demonstrate the cosmic implications of Christ's sacrifice and our role in it as priests to God. . . . This is a timely and important contribution to pastoral theology. --J. Michael Walters, Professor emeritus of Christian Ministry, Houghton College
