A fresh look at radical Jesus with Damon Garcia Compass Podcast: Finding the spirituality in the day-to-day
-
- Christianity
Damon Garcia, author of “The God Who Riots”, is our fellow sojourner and seeker for this conversation on Compass.
He invites us to think about Jesus’ view of holy action and belief. It’s a bit of a disruption if you grew up with the notion of Jesus being a calm and passive presence seeking to teach people about the afterlife. Instead, Damon comes at us talking about Jesus in the here and now disrupting our acceptance of systems of harm and injustice.
Let’s meet Damon Garcia, he is a public theologian, writer and video essayist–you can find his work on YouTube and in the book “The God Who Riots: Taking back the Radical Jesus.” Damon helps people unsettle and untangle the influence of Christian teachings that have done harm in the past… things like colonialism.
