In this episode of the Wayside Podcast, Bishop N. T. Wright returns to discuss his upcoming book, which revisits themes from his earlier work, "Surprised by Hope." The conversation delves into the biblical concept of God's homecoming and the idea that God intends to put the world right, contrasting this with traditional Western theology's focus on heaven. Wright emphasizes the importance of understanding the Bible's narrative in its historical context and explores the role of the church as a multicultural project. The discussion also touches on the challenges of modern Christianity, the significance of justice and beauty, and the role of the Holy Spirit in life and after death. The episode concludes with reflections on the delight of creation and the ongoing relevance of biblical teachings.
