{"product_id":"mimetic-theory-and-biblical-interpretation-9781532601101","title":"Mimetic Theory and Biblical Interpretation","description":"For close to two thousand years, Christian theology has been captivated by a sacrificial rendering of the Gospel that renders God as retributive, arbitrary, and Janus-faced. In the past fifty years a non-sacrificial way of perceiving the Gospel, God, and the mission and message of Jesus has challenged this sacrificial hegemony. Now what began as a trickle in the 1960s has burst the dam and the Gospel is on a collision course with Christianity. What are some of the implications of this moment? What is the integral cohesion in a non-sacrificial theology, ethics, and spirituality? What does Christian doctrine look like if one removes retributive economies of exchange?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Michael Hardin is the cofounder and executive director of Preaching Peace, cofounder of Theology and Peace\u003cb\u003e, \u003c\/b\u003eand is the coeditor of \u003ci\u003eCompassionate Eschatology\u003c\/i\u003e, editor of \u003ci\u003eReading the Bible with Ren?
