Imaginatively engaging with subjects such as subversion, deconstruction, confrontation and sedition, this book highlights the stark contrasts between the punk genre and the ministry of Jesus while revealing surprising similarities. In so doing, it demonstrates how we may look at both subjects in fresh and unusual ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJohnson examines both punk and Jesus and their challenges to symbols, gestures of revolt, constructive use of conflict, and the shattering of relational norms. He then points to the seditious pattern in Jesus' life and how it can be discerned in some recent trends in theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe imaginative images that he creates provide a challenging depiction of Jesus and of those who have radically reconsidered what being a ‘seditious’ follower of Christ means for the church in recent years. Introducing both a new partner for theological conversation and a fresh approach to the task, this book presents a powerful method for exploring the life of Christ and a new way of engaging with both recent theological trends and the more challenging expressions of popular culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607561683180,"sku":"9781409467014","price":353.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781409467014-seditious-theology.jpg?v=1778171153","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/seditious-theology-by-mark-johnson-9781409467014","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
