Part 7. More Relationships: Chapter 14 - Chapter 16 A seven part series on the Letter to the Romans. Why would Paul write his longest letter to a church he had not founded or even visited? This expositor believes the answer lies in its history, culminating in a major crisis which could have split the whole church into two denominations. Originally Jewish (Acts 2:10–11), it soon attracted Gentiles, who were left on their own when Claudius evicted all Jews (Acts 18:2). In their absence a teaching emerged which we now know as ‘Replacement Theology', believing that God has rejected the Jews and turned instead to the Christian Church as his chosen people on earth, a view which, alas, is now widespread. Paul's carefully argued answer shows how much believing Jews and Gentiles have in common, both in sin and salvation, in flesh and Spirit. This approach treats ‘Chapters 9–11', (divisions never in his letter) as an integral part of his appeal, reaching its climax in a threefold challenge to the arrogance of the Gentile believers in Rome (11:18, 20, 25) in not warmly welcoming back into the fellowship the Jews who were allowed to return under Nero. This ‘key' unlocks the whole epistle, from the solemn warning that believers can lose their salvation (11:20–22) to the careful instruction on how to live with ‘disputable matters' such as diet and days (14:1 – 15:13); and ends with so many commands to greet each other with ‘a holy kiss' (16:16). However, as with most of Paul's practical counsel, all this is firmly rooted in sound ‘gospel' theology. Notes accompanying this series of talks on Romans can be downloaded from here.

The discourse presented during this session at Theology Beer Camp 2024 in Denver, Colorado, delves into the intricate relationship between video games and theological and ethical considerations. Central to the conversation is Ben Chicka's latest publication, "Playing as Others: Theological and Ethical Responsibility in Video Games," which posits that engaging with video games can facilitate profound reflections on identity and moral agency. The dialogue, led by Joshua Noel of Systematic Geekology and Taylor Thomas of Tillich Today, explores how players navigate their interactions within virtual realms, particularly when embodying characters that differ from their own lived experiences. Through the lens of philosophical theology, the speakers examine the ways in which video games serve as cultural artifacts that can affirm one's existence while simultaneously fostering empathy for others. This episode ultimately encourages listeners to recognize the potential of gaming as a medium for ethical engagement and personal growth, challenging the traditional boundaries of both theology and popular culture.Check out Ben Chicka's book, "Playing as Others: Theological and Ethical Responsibility in Video Games":https://www.amazon.com/Playing-Others-Theology-Ethical-Responsibility/dp/1481315463.Follow Taylor Thomas' podcast, "Tillich Today":https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tillich-today/id1725855909In a thought-provoking recording from Theology Beer Camp 2024, Joshua Noel and Taylor Thomas engage Ben Chicka in a dialogue that traverses the intersection of gaming and theology, anchored by Chicka's recent publication, "Playing as Others: Theological and Ethical Responsibility in Video Games." The setting, a vibrant gathering of theological minds in Denver, provides a rich backdrop for exploring the implications of gaming on personal identity and ethical considerations. Chicka, a Senior Lecturer at Curry College, articulates how video games can transcend mere entertainment, serving instead as a conduit for theological reflection and ethical engagement.At the heart of the conversation lies the assertion that playing video games as diverse characters can foster a sense of empathy and understanding, facilitating a deeper connection to the experiences of others. Chicka draws upon the works of Paul Tillich to frame his arguments, suggesting that video games can create spaces for encountering the 'Other' and grappling with complex ethical dilemmas. Through examples from notable titles such as "Gone Home" and "Mass Effect," he elucidates how these narratives challenge players' assumptions and promote a more inclusive worldview. The episode further explores the cultural significance of gaming communities, positing that they can embody modern theological spaces that encourage acceptance and pluralism. Chicka's insights invite listeners to reconsider their relationship with video games, framing them as potent tools for personal and communal transformation. By the conclusion of the discussion, the audience is left with a renewed appreciation for the theological dimensions of gaming, encouraging a conscientious approach to engaging with digital narratives.Takeaways: The theological and ethical implications of video games extend beyond mere entertainment, inviting deeper reflection on identity and existence. Ben Chicka's work emphasizes the role of video games in shaping cultural narratives and understanding the 'other' in a theological context. The discussion highlights how video games can create spaces for marginalized voices, fostering acceptance and...

“The amount of guilt and the sense of alienation that people feel when they fall in love with someone who is ‘outside', and the struggle that they have to undergo to explain that choice which they fully don't understand themselves, is a very deep conflict that my work tries to capture. The title of my book is ‘Intimacy in Alienation', and alienation is something that is really very pregnant in the identities of these individuals who feel like aliens to their own community because their community cannot imagine why are they seeing the other as something positive but not as how the community wants them to see. So there's a big gap that often gets deeper and it widens and it really forecloses any conversation and imagination.” Episode Description: We begin with considering the nature of 'malignant othering' that Ashis describes in parts of the Hindu-Muslim interface in India. His thesis is that transcending the binary into a 'third' is essential in the "quest for newer foundations defining Hindu and Muslim identities that are freed from historically entrenched definitions." He describes the challenges faced by each community that lacks the imagination of what is positive in the other. We discuss the importance of family support for interfaith couples and how often that is lacking. He describes 'love-jihad' where the autonomous agency of the partners is, through the eyes of fundamentalism, reduced to stereotypes of oppressor-oppressed. Ashis describes his research methodology which borrows from the psychoanalytic method in its recognition of transference and repetition. He closes by sharing with us the impact on him of the riots of 2002 and behind that the latent presence of the atrocities of the 1947 Partition. He bemoans "the erosion of the narratives of harmony" and sees his work as his effort at healing. Our Guest: Ashis Roy (PhD) is a Psychoanalyst at the Delhi Chapter of the Indian Psychoanalytic Society ( IPA London). He works with adults and couples. For more than a decade he was on the Faculty at the Centre of Psychotherapy and Clinical Research, Ambedkar University, where he participated in institution building, taught psychoanalysis, and trained students to become Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists. He is a faculty at CAPA (China-American Psychoanalytic Alliance) and is interested in exploring Asian and South Asian cultures using psychoanalysis. He hosts podcasts on the New Books Network and works with psychoanalysts across the globe. His book, Intimate Hindu-Muslim Relationships: A Psychoanalytic Exploration of the Self and the Other (2024) has been published by Yoda Press. Recommended Readings: Erikson, E. H. (1968).

We finally made it to the big five-oh! If you don't count the Spooktaculars....or the Patreon episodes....Whatever, we made it regardless! We also managed to survive 2024, although 2025 is shaping up to be a rough one. Hopefully we'll have plenty of good models and good games to help us through it all. As always, we cover our recent games played and hobby progress, as well as recent WarCom articles. We're also covering the models of the year from GW, as voted on by you (be ashamed of yourselves for the 'Other' category). And we wrap up 2024 with a review of last years resolutions, as well as making some fresh ones for 2025. Thanks for sticking with us, and we hope you hang around for another year of nerdy hobby nonsense.
