Authoritarianism and the Need for a Nurturant Christianity
YouTube LivestreamHow, in this political season, can Christians and others be so divided? How can some believe that genuine Christianity is about "authority, law and order" and others that it is about "nurturing love"? John Cobb and John Sanders are on the nurturing love side. They believe the God in whom Jesus placed his trust was a God of inclusion, generosity, forgiveness, and empathy. In this hour-long conversation, sponsored by the Cobb Institute, they share their perspectives and discuss their hopes for a nurturant Christianity.
