The Larger Picture explores the questions behind everyday life: What does it mean to know, to love, to be free, and to live well? Through philosophy, Christianity, literature and experience, we look beyond easy answers and search for the larger picture.Alex
  • Part 3. The end that isn't the end
    Oct 7 2026

    So let's go back. All the way back.

    Before hell. Before sin. Before humanity. Creation.

    God creates something genuinely other.

    Not puppets. Persons. Freedom makes love possible.

    Freedom makes creativity possible. And freedom makes rejection possible. Humanity turns inward.

    Freedom becomes domination.

    Personhood becomes individualism.

    Relationship becomes possession.

    Alienation becomes violence.

    Violence becomes systems.

    Law can restrain it... but law cannot heal the human heart.

    Israel wrestles with God. The picture grows.

    Then Jesus appears.

    And Christianity makes its astonishingclaim: If you want to know what God is like... look here. Not at abstract power. At Christ.

    Eating with outsiders. Touching the excluded.

    Forgiving. Healing. Washing feet.

    Then humanity does what alienated humanitydoes.

    We kill him. Political power. Religious fear. Crowds. Betrayal.

    Violence. The whole machinery of human alienationconverges on a cross.

    And God doesn't answer with greater violence.

    God answers with resurrection.

    Death isn't merely forgiven. It is challenged.

    And resurrection becomes the firstfruits.

    The beginning. Which means salvation was never simply:

    How can I avoid punishment after I die? The question was larger. How can creation be healed?
