Sobre este áudio
Through its shocking incongruities and transgressive forms, the grotesque offers an intriguing lens for exploring the scandal of the gospel and the challenges of Christian preaching. Drawing on diverse sources - from Swedish crime fiction and contemporary poetry to James Cone, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Pussy Riot - this book will examine the theological, homiletical, and social implications of a grotesque gospel for contemporary preachers.
The book focuses on three aspects of preaching and the grotesque:
- The ways in which a grotesque gospel unsettles the preacher and challenges the "false patterns" that often shape Christian preaching;
- The importance and challenges of resisting the weaponized grotesque, which dehumanizes people and furthers the power of dominant groups;
- The incarnate word as the carnivalesque, grotesque body of Jesus, which calls the church to become the porous and inclusive body of Christ.
The Scandal of the Gospel is the written adaptation of Yale Divinity School's Beecher Lectures, given by Charles Campbell in 2018. The last chapter, "Preaching and the Environmental Grotesque", is a new addition.
