Description

The central event in all of history. The lamb slain before the foundation of the world. This creation defining moment all too often is reduced to a moral lesson about right and wrong. As Brennan Manning said, "The gospel is absurd and the life of Jesus is meaningless unless we believe that He lived, died, and rose again with but one purpose in mind: to make brand-new creation. Not to make people with better morals but to create a community of prophets and professional lovers, men and women who would surrender to the mystery of the fire of the Spirit that burns within." Join Murr and Josh as they dive in to the layers of meaning in the central event. From the first chapters of Genesis to the wisdom of the Patristic Fathers, they cover a lot of ground in today's episode.
