Episode 135: A space within God

Welcome back to Lockdown everyone! And welcome back to our discussion of creation and where it all has come from. How do you square a loving God with an often brutal creation? What about nature red in tooth and claw?

But if you need cheering up, listen to the ending! John V Taylor, The Christlike GodExcerpt on ‘Tsimtsum’William C. Placher, Narratives of a Vulnerable Godhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzimtzum
