May 17, 2023 | The Power to Love – a Buddhist-Christian-Taoist image of the Divine

Paul Greene Ph.D., Theology, teaches theology at St. Catherine University. He is the author of The End of Divine Truthiness: Love, Power, and God.

Too often God’s power and love are portrayed in ways that end up making God seem capricious or undergirding human structures of oppression. Drawing on Christian-Buddhist dialog, process theology, Taoist philosophy, liberation ethics, and Stephen Colbert(!), Paul Greene reimagines a vision of God whose powerful love empowers our love. For a community committed to journey together in deeper faith, justice, and love, Paul’s work offers real understanding and a source of deep hope.
