We dialogue with Professor Mark Wallace (Swarthmore College, PhD from U. Chicago) about his recent eco-theological book, "When God was a Bird: Christianity, Animism, and the ReEnchantment of the World."
It is a beautiful exploration of viewing the Bible not only through "green" eyes but through an "animist" lens.
We cover:
- God did not only "enflesh" (Him/Her)Self, but S/he "enfeathered" Themselves
- The queer, animist nature of the Genesis Creation story
- The Serpent God told the Hebrew People to look at for healing
- Jesus working in 'shamanistic' ways when he works with the highly potent dust/earth at his feet to perform his healings
- The Fluidity of the Divine
And wonder at the extent to which it is time to lay to rest some of the divisions between "animist" practices and the Judeo-Christian tradition that has caused so much riff over the years.
It's a bit long, but I hope you find it is worth the time it takes to listen to it!
