107: Biblical critical theory with Christopher Watkin
Centre for Christian Living podcast
The Bible as a Critical Theory
The chapter explores how the Bible functions as a critical theory, shaping individuals' perspectives on trust, societal issues, and values by presenting God's promises, emphasizing societal injustices, and promoting the value of serving others. It delves into the book's goal of empowering Christians in public debates without conforming to secular norms, advocating for a dialogue between biblical insights and contemporary cultural questions. The concept of diagonalization is discussed as a tool to reorient societal debates, emphasizing the importance of humans being created in the image of God and the need to understand foundational elements like sin and redemption for a comprehensive grasp of the Christian faith.
