The Weirdness of the Transfiguration - Humanity Part 6 - KC #034


Listen Later

Matt and Josh turn to Jesus to see how his teachings, transfiguration, death, resurrection, and ascension all reveal what it means to be a human being. They discuss how Jesus is not just the first full human being, but the original image of God as well, and how much modern political and ethical disagreements flow from different accounts of anthropology.
