Dear Becoming Ones,
I invite you to spend some time with this recorded conversation I had with Dr. Beatrice Marovich. Together, we explore her provocative essay on the “death of theology” and linger in the question of what death — in all its shadows and edges — might make possible for us.
What might an emo theology invite us to feel, to risk, to imagine? How might our shadow sides, our encounters with death and darkness, cultivate a new fold of theology for this moment? And where might such questions lead us as we seek to nurture another possible world?
Dr. Marovich’s work opens up fertile ground for these explorations, and I’m grateful to share this dialogue with you. I hope you’ll watch, listen, and let these questions trouble and tend you — as they continue to tend me.
With courage for the shadows,
Dr. Roberto Che Espinoza+
