This series of messages, will be pulling from the work of some of history's, as well as present day's, greatest theologians, scholars, and writers, including the writings of; the patristic fathers (Clement, Origen, Ignatius, and Gregory of Nyssa), Swiss theologian Karl Barth, Scottish theologian TF Torrance, English Theologian NT Wright, and American theologian and pastors Gregory Boyd, and Brian Zahnd. I owe a deep debt of gratitude to the work of Brad Jersak, Canadian author, speaker, pastor, and teacher, for his book, "Her Gates Will Never Be Shut", upon with this series is based, and numerous comments I'll share today will be taken from this outstanding book.
