All creation is the manifestation of a Love (God) Song, the Logos (logic) of God. Music is not illogical but more “logic” than we can comprehend. And so, to appreciate Music, the Music, the Logos, must comprehend us. Physicists argue that all elementary particles are different ‘notes’ on a fundamental string, such that “The universe… is akin to a cosmic symphony,” (Brian Green). Aslan sings Narnia into existence. In Tolkien’s The Silmarillion, God through angels sings creation into existence, and when a fallen angel sings discordant notes, God Himself sings those discordant notes into a deeper harmony. The dissonance creates a longing for consonance and ecstatic delight in a deeper resonance. In the Revelation, a slaughtered lamb stands on the throne (the top of the ark) and sings meaning into the Seven Sealed Scroll as all creation worships. Reality is a dance, and if you’re not dancing to the Logos of Love, perhaps you don’t actually exist. When you nail the Logos to a tree, what do you get? Sheet music, dance steps, science, and technology — it has its place, but it’s not the same as feeling happy or dancing in the moonlight.

“The Logos became flesh and we have seen his glory—grace.” Jesus lived gracefully; He lived His life like a dance. The dance fulfilled the law, although it was not at all what we expected. We had the sheet music; we had the knowledge of good and evil; we had the law in a coffin in a stone temple. We had the dance steps, but we were all surprised by the Dancer and His Dance.

In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. C. Baxter Kruger and Jason Clark delve into a challenging discussion about the true meaning of the cross and the shortcomings of penal substitutionary atonement. They question traditional views by exploring the relational dynamics within the Trinity, the concept of divine submission, and the profound implications of Jesus’ death. Together, they examine who truly "killed" Jesus, suggesting that the violence of the cross reflects humanity's delusion and fractured understanding of God, rather than divine wrath. This eye-opening conversation invites listeners to reconsider the gospel as a message of divine love, union, and reconciliation.

In this powerful episode, Dr. C. Baxter Kruger and Jason Clark explore the Gospel of John, focusing on themes of divine light, humanity’s catastrophic delusion, and the profound nature of Union. They tackle questions about identity, separation, and the deep-seated human tendency to turn away from the light. Drawing on John’s words, they reveal how Jesus steps into our darkness, not as an external savior but as the light within, piercing through our blindness and resistance to illuminate the truth of divine love. This eye-opening discussion challenges viewers to confront misconceptions and discover the radical, inclusive love of God.
