An Asian man in a dark suit, a purple shirt and clerical collar and a silver pectoral cross, stands at a lectern. Behind him a PowerPoint slide is displayed (he’s telling a story about his childhood experiences in Birmingham so it shows a picture of the allegedly hallowed ground of Villa Park, a place his mum wouldn’t let him go because football grounds were full of National Front supporters).
At the YTEP Tutor Development Day on Racial Justice. First up, +Arun Arora, who starts by noting the urgency of this in the face of strengthening Christian Nationalism.
That seems to be the favourite atm!
Or comment with another idea!
The manuscript for my forthcoming book with Wipf & Stock is almost ready to submit, but I need a title! Please have your say below to help me decide. The subtitle will be a version of 'The Agency of Sin in Romans 5-8'.
- Sin as Antiperson
- Sin
- Antiperson
- Power, Personification, or Antiperson?
