Justin Winzenburg Stephen Jones

Show Notes

Justin and Stephen consider the implications of Ephesians for how Christians might approach life today, including how hope and despair stemming from contemporary politics may reveal eschatological drift. This episode is the last in the series on Justin's Ph.D. dissertation, which considered anti-imperial readings of Ephesians. 

Justin's dissertation is now available as a book (also at Amazon).

Justin referenced his appearance on The Two Cities podcast.   

Stephen and Justin also discuss their highlights, lowlights, and insights for the week. Justin reflects on the district conference and dealing with abuse in the church, and Stephen reflects on the war and being far from home.
