To Serve as a Slave

from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School

Unlike human philosophy, which re-imagines the world in its image, imposing the ruthless and violent ego of liberal and conservative idealism, Scripture takes the world as it is—with unparalleled attention to facts on the ground—co-opting social structures to serve its agenda. The first produces violence against the other side; the latter calls all of us to crucifixion for our enemies' sake. Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 20:24-28.Episode 344 Matthew 20:24-28; Music:Eighties Action by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3703-eighties-actionLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
