Elizabeth Oldfield’s podcast, The Sacred, can be found on podcast feeds. Her conversation with Paul Kingsnorth, along with many others, is a rewarding listen.
I discuss this take on the parables and Jesus’s wit more fully in my book, A Secret History of Christianity: Jesus, the Last Inkling and the Evolution of Consciousness (John Hunt Publishing).
I owe the expression to Elizabeth, but the nature of “full strength Christianity” is a regular concern of my thoughts on Dante, William Blake, Owen Barfield and, indeed, Jesus.
