What would it mean to be at home in the world? More specifically, what would it mean to have a home in a world that has not yet become God's home and our home in one? Ambivalence toward home both its affirmation and its contestation is central to the Christian imagination, starting with the relation of Jesus Christ to his own home.What shape might this ambivalence take today, given both our pervasive social homelessness and our existential homelessness? https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/cadburylectures
