The Other Journal

The Other Journal is a space for Christian interdisciplinary theological refection that tackles the cultural crises of our time with verve and peculiar slant advancing a progressive provocative and charitable response in sync with the peacefully contrarian Christ. In this issue we consider the theme of authority from the vantage point of pews and hospital rooms of jail cells low-lit dining rooms and ancient coin collections. We learn to hear the cries of those who have suffered abuse from the powerful to resist with the Apostle Paul and to consent to grace from the source of love beyond all earthly powers. Our authority issue features prose by Andrew DeCort Lyle Enright Steven Felix-Jager Richard C. Goode Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew Vincent Lloyd Mary McCampbell Mary Lane Potter Gavin Richardson Hilary Jerome Scarsella Rebecca Shirley Heidi Turner and Brandon Wrencher; poetry by Jill Bergkamp Susan Carlson Barbara Crooker and Katie Manning; an exhibition by Douglas Coupland mixed media by Sedrick Huckaby and multimedia by Brent Everett Dickinson; and an interview with Devin Singh by Zachary Thomas Settle.
