Episode 2 - The Anatomy of Jesus's Compassion

This episode will explore a core claim of passio Dei, that theological reflection and praxis should be grounded in the compassion of Jesus. Ecclesiologically speaking, we need a compassionate way of being church, that normalizes the experience of Jesus’s own kenosis (self-emptying) and passion. Passional theology is a way of doing theology from below, located in the experience of the oppressed, and grounded in the incarnation. Thus, the anatomy of Jesus’s compassion reveals that God’s essence is mostly fully expressed through immersion in human vulnerability and suffering.
