| Summary: | This article presents the soteriology of Julian of Norwich expressed in her Parable of the Lord and the Servant. In focusing on Julian's understanding of salvation four dimensions of the soteriology highlighted in the parable are considered: the experience of the fall, the relationship of the lord to the servant during the fall, the central role of the servant in bestowing grace on creation, and hope for eternal union with God. Each of these soteriological dimensions is then appraised in light of contemporary questions about the meaning of salvation. |
