Joerg Rieger: Divine Justice & our Ultimate Concern


Listen Later

Joerg Rieger is back on the podcast for some fun theology QnA. In our conversation, we cover…

  • an invitation to Solidarity Circles from the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice at Vanderbilt Divinity School.
  • the most cancelable theological idea
  • what concept/word should we recover?
  • the nature of solidarity
  • what did you learn from the pandemic?
  • is there a theology of institutions?
  • should we burn it all down?
  • the problem with Resident Aliens
  • ecclesiology
  • liberals’ sin problem
  • why Anslem is (possibly) awesome
  • book recommendations
  • why you should come to Theology Beer Camp!

Joerg Rieger is Distinguished Professor of Theology and the Cal Turner Chancellor’s Chair of Wesleyan Studies. He is also the founding director of the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice. For more than two decades, he has worked to bring together theology and the struggles for justice and liberation that mark our age. His work addresses the relation of theology and public life, reflecting on the misuse of power in religion, politics, and economics. His main interest is in developments and movements that bring about change and in the positive contributions of religion and theology. His constructive work in theology draws on a wide range of historical and contemporary traditions, with a concern for manifestations of the divine in the pressures of everyday life.
