The Cross, Resurrection, Blood, and Church of Jesus: TNT Crossed Out

November 28, 2011 by Bo Sanders 14 Comments

In this hour long conversation Bo and Tripp take up the question “Is too much emphasis placed on the cross?” Bo thinks that it is both out of proportion and ultimately unhelpful to place so much importance in this one symbol. Tripp think that it can be redeemed from those who have misused and misappropriated it. The debate started with [this post]

In this week’s installment of the Theology Nerd Throw-down (TNT) we come in with a bunch questions but never get past the first one. “How are we to understand Christian unity with somebody like Mark Driscoll?” Make no mistake though – that one question leads us on a wild tour of the issue. We cover a whole gamut of related topics and issues.

For those unfamiliar with Mark Driscoll here is a YouTube clip: Driscoll on Tolerance

TNT : week of September 15

September 15, 2011 by Bo Sanders 8 Comments

This Theology Nerd Throwdown is sponsored by Claremont School of Theology.

Tripp and Bo take on three topics in the news from a progressive Christian perspective with an eye toward the theological.

1. Did 9/11 really change us? You can read the initial blog here.

2. The crows at the Republican Presidential debates are telling us something. We think that something is bad.

3. Claremont Lincoln University had it’s convocation ceremony this week. That seemed significant in light of story 1 and 2 above.

In this hour-long show these two theology nerds reference several books – including but not limited to :

The Powers the Be by Walter Wink

Simply Christian by N.T. Wright

Theology and the Kingdom by Wolfhart Pannenberg

No Rising Tide by Joerge Rieger

The views expressed are not necessarily those of Claremont School of Theology or Claremont Lincoln University.
