Matter and the New Physics

Ron opens up for us the wonder of the ‘new physics’ that restored mystery to matter in the 20th century.If you think that we get more concrete, the closer weget to atoms and molecules, you will never think that way again after hearing Ron’s talk. In fact the closer we get to matter – the little ‘bits’ of it, the closer we get to mystery and strangeness. Please note that Ron used an extensive set of Powerpoint slides to support his talk. We have posted these slides on the gospel conversations website, so you can follow the slides through as you listen to his talk.

How order not sin frames Genesis pt 2

Sin is obviously animportant word, and central to the Christian doctrine. But it is also a loadedword, and one that works like a sinkhole to suck in streams of meaning – someof which may not be helpful.

How order not sin frames Genesis

In essence, John says that it is ‘order’ (and what he calls the ‘order spectrum’) that frames the thinking in Genesis – not ‘sin’. He implies (what I would say more boldly perhaps) that the ‘sin’ framework is a modern anachronistic reading – whereby we are reading our modern paradigms backwards into the text.

Drama and the humble God

Here is the third talk in our journey through Exodus as an analogy of redemption. In this talk we explore Exodus through the lens of drama. Of course, the whole Bible is in essence a drama in that it is a narrative or story grounded in events rather than abstract ideas.
