Was It Something I Read?

Bloody, Brutal and Barbaric? Ep. 3 Traditional Answers and Reading Redemptively Part Two

Ashley, Kate & Alex Season 1 Episode 3

Summary

Carrying on from the prior episode, we continue to talk about divine purpose and human failings, messy toddlers, and the sometimes painful results and moral grey areas wrought by the actions of humans who are in process. An interesting conversation about non-combatant innocents and theological innocence leads to questions about unintentional category shifts in scholarship, and raises (though doesn’t explore!) questions about the differing Calvinist/Arminian perspectives on guilt and innocence. We conclude with a reflection on evil and suffering, and Kate reminds us that the scales of goodness and justice will yet be balanced by the God who is making all things new.
