Really enjoyed the talk with Tony Jones. I appreciated the conversation. Two books on atonement you guys might find helpful. I would suggest Cone's The Cross and the Lynching Tree which deals with the legacy of lynching as the lens through which we can look at the cross. Second, I would suggest Adam Kotsko's The Politics of Redemption which is certainly useful in critiquing the individualism of atonement theory and proposes an ontology that focus on interconnectivity. I think you guys would really enjoy it.

Hey, I like Wendell Berry! But seriously, great episode. Lot of stuff to chew on.
