You Tube Theology

Glen Stassen is Professor of Ethics at Fuller Theological Seminary, in Pasadena, Californina. In this interview with Don Edwards he gives practical help to Christians who say, after 9/11 for example, "But what can we do? We have to respond somehow." Stassen says, "The demon in this country is the belief that if you are going to do something about something, you have to make war." He then draws examples from his book JUST PEACEMAKING: TEN PRACTICES FOR ABOLISHING WAR to show that there are at least ten things better than war for responding to terrorism! All of this he draws from the life and teachings of Jesus. Stassen maintains that Christians either don't know, or don't care, how Jesus lived and taught, but he believes that they can come to know and to care. [ECAPC #45]
