When at length your turn comes, as it certainly will, from the first hour in which an affliction seizes you, realize to yourself the hand of God in it, and lose not the view of him in any second cause, which may have proved the immediate occasion. Let it be your first care to -humble yourself under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.- -1 Pet. 5-6- Own that -he is just in all that is brought upon you,- -Neh. 9-33- and that in all these things -he punishes you less than your iniquities deserve.- -Ezra 9-13- Compose yourself to bear his hand with patience, to glorify his name by a submission to his will, and to fall in with the gracious design of his visitation, as well as to wait the issue of it quietly, whatsoever the event may be.

John Shuck begins a five-part series on Revisioning Christianity. How did Christianity triumph? Was it a hoax? Is it unbelievable? Does it yet have a message to inspire peace and justice?  My five guests include Bart Ehrman, author of the newly released, The Triumph of Christianity: How A Forbidden Religion Swept the World, John Shelby Spong, author of the newly released, Unbelievable: Why Neither Ancient Creeds Nor the Reformation Can Produce a Living Faith Today, David Skrbina, author of the newly released, The Jesus Hoax: How St. Paul's Cabal Fooled the World for Two Thousand Years, Angela Yarber, creator of the Holy Women Icons Project, and starting us off, John Dominic Crossan, who with his wife, Sarah Sexton Crossan have just released Resurrecting Easter: How the West Lost and the East Kept the Original Easter Vision. Professor John Dominic Crossan is regarded as the foremost historical Jesus scholar of our time. He is the author of 30 or so books including his hugely influential, The Historical Jesus: The Life of a Mediterranean Jewish Peasant. This is the third time Professor Crossan has been on Progressive Spirit. Previously on this show we discussed his books, The Power of Parable: How Fiction by Jesus became fiction about Jesus, and How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian: Struggling with Divine Violence from Genesis Through Revelation. In this episode, we discuss how the vision of Easter as depicted in the Eastern iconography of Anastasis "rising up" symbolizes non-violent resistance to empire.Re

“Our bible reveals to us the character of our God with minute and remorseless exactitude. The portrait is substantially that of a man — if one can imagine a man charged and overcharged with evil impulses far beyond the human limit; a personage whom no one would desire to associate with, now that Nero and Caligula are dead. In the Old Testament His acts expose His vindictive, unjust, ungenerous, pitiless, and thousand-fold severity; punishing innocent children for the misdeeds of their parents; punishing unoffending populations for the misdeeds of their rulers; even descending to wreak bloody vengeance upon harmless calves and lambs and sheep and bullocks, as punishment for inconsequential trespasses committed by their proprietors. It is perhaps the most damnatory biography that exists in print anywhere; it makes Nero an angel of light and leading, by contrast.”(Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume II, page 128 Dictated June, 19, 1906). In Dr. Crossan most recent book, How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian: Struggling with Divine Violence from Genesis through Revelation, tackles Twain’s and other people’s misunderstanding of the Bible. The premise of Dr. Crossan’s book involves an honest assessment of these sacred texts and how not only metaphor is used in scripture to express theological truths but a dialectical conflict between peaceful and violent concepts. We also discuss the many biblical passages that appear to support the oppression of women, slavery and xenophobia, which can be explained in relation to the overall theme of peace and non-violence expressed by the prophets. Dr. Crossan defines non-violence as resistance to evil something Jewish and Christian authors communicated in their writings and has inspired multiple peaceful movements throughout history.

In this week’s show we are honored to have a world renown scholar who participated in the Jesus Seminar in the 1990’s. His books include Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography and The Historical Jesus: The Life of a Mediterranean Jewish Peasant.
