RELOCATING Calvin with Ruben Rosario Rodriguez (ep. 61)
Update: 2024-10-02
Description
On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Dr. Ruben Rosario Rodriguez, about his new book Calvin for the World. Dr. Rosario makes what might be to some a surprising argument: that beyond the smaller circles where Calvin is revered, the real Calvin casts a capacious vision for our troubled times. Among the topics we discuss:
- Dr. Rosario's story of his life with Calvin, and how Calvin made a difference growing up in Puerto Rico, studying in NY, pastoring in a rural community, and now teaching at a Jesuit University.
- Assessing Calvin's legacy and responding to his detractors
- "Liking" Calvin vs. respecting and appreciating Calvin
- The parallels and divergences between Calvin and liberation theology
- Calvin (and Calvinism) responding to the experience of exile and the phenomenon of refugees
- Calvin's transnational ecclesiology and what we can learn from him today
