The Conquest of Canaan and the Mission of God's People to Love the World

Greg Boyd: Archaeology is only ever a tiny bit of the evidence. How do you explain the horrific Old Testament accounts of God's judgment in the light of the New Testament change of emphasis? He says Abraham oscillates from great moments of faith and obedience to disastrous moments of getting everything upside down inside out. Greg Boyd: I think all of this comes down to the fact that when God makes the good creation, he calls humans to be his partners in making creation what he wants it to be. The world designed to work when humans reflect God's stewardship into the world.
