A Theopoetics of the Cross- With Brian Zahnd Rethinking Faith
-
- Christianity
This week Brian Zahnd returns to the podcast to discuss his new book, "The Wood Between Worlds: A Poetic Theology of the Cross". Let's be honest... after deconstruction talking about the cross can be very difficult! In fact a lot of stuff we have been taught about the cross should be thrown out, but do we have to ditch the cross all together? Brian thinks not!
Instead, Brian offers us a Theopoetics of the cross. He contends that the cross is BIGGER than any atonement theory and to reduce the cross to atonement is to do an injustice to the cross. Instead, Brian offers us image after image to expand and make deeper our understanding of whatever the hell happened on the cross. Enjoy!
