Interview with D.P. Curtin of The Scriptorium Project
Description
In this episode of The Restless Theologian, I sit down with D.P. Curtin to discuss his translation of the Margam Kali Pattu, a historical Christian hymn from the Saint Thomas Christians of India. Curtin shares how this ancient song connects to a rich tradition of apostolic Christianity rooted in the work of Thomas the Apostle.
We explore the history of Christianity in India, the influence of the East Syrian Church, and the significance of the Council of Florence in attempts to reunite Eastern and Western Christianity. Curtin also walks through the challenges of translating ancient Christian works for modern readers while preserving their spiritual depth.
If you're interested in global church history, early Christianity outside Europe, or the theology of missions, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.
