One Book for $25.00

For centuries, the doctrine of election has quietly carried a shadow—an assumption that God’s chosen must be defined over and against the unchosen. From subtle exclusion to overt judgment, this “scapegoat logic” has shaped Christian imagination far more than most realize. In Rediscovering the Forgotten Man: The Election Without Scapegoats, Carlos Padilla brings fresh, courageous clarity to one of theology’s most misunderstood doctrines.

Drawing from the insights of Karl Barth and René Girard, Padilla unveils a vision of election that refuses rivalry, violence, or divine favoritism. Instead of a God who chooses by exclusion, we encounter a God who elects in order to heal, reconcile, and restore. This is election that liberates rather than divides—an election embodied in Jesus Christ, the One who breaks the scapegoat mechanism from within.

This award-winning work challenges inherited assumptions with pastoral gentleness and scholarly depth. It invites readers to re-imagine salvation, community, and God’s very character apart from the cycles of blame and fear that have long defined religious life.

For theologians, pastors, and thoughtful believers alike, Rediscovering the Forgotten Man opens a way into a Gospel without victims—a vision of election as God’s self-giving love for all.
