Living Theology

Christianity is an historical religion. In some faiths it’s not so important that the events happened or people existed—they are parables or illustrations to teach spiritual lessons. But, Christianity is tied to geography and genealogies, and, the entire hinges on an historical event—the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. And, as the context of Christianity is real time/real space, it means it’s also bound to relationships. In fact, all theology is done within the context of relationships. In Galatia the relationships are revealing a troubling theology, one that ours often reflects. What does it mean to live the theology of the gospel?
