It's a little odd, but mostly for the style rather than the ideas, from the excerpts you have here. Coleman Luck is a graduate of the Moody Bible Institute, which is evangelical and relatively mainstream, as these things go. Evangelicals do have a tendency to talk about "being washed in the Blood of the Lamb" and that kind of thing, but the tone of this seems a bit different. The idea of wounds as a gift is one I associate more with medieval Catholicism, with people praying for stigmata etc.
