Can God Suffer? with Andrew Sung Park

Andrew Sung Park is the professor of Theology and Ethics at United Theological Seminary in Dayton Ohio. On the podcast today he discusses the God's relationship to suffering, the nature of divine perfection, the difference between sin and shame and the divine soteriological entanglement.

I can't tell you how powerful his opening lecture is on the pre-theological intuitions and powers at work within all of us. The lecture and conversation as a whole serve to demonstrate just how powerful Dr. Park's theological vision can be.

PS. I straight teared up toward the end of his talk.

Here's some awesome books from Dr. Park: Triune Atonement: Christ's Healing for Sinners, Victims, and the Whole Creation

From Hurt to Healing: A Theology of the Wounded

The Wounded Heart of God: The Asian Concept of Han and the Christian Doctrine of Sin
