Orthodox Christology

Maintains that Jesus Christ is both truly God and truly human. As such, he is the key to knowing both God and self.

Mirrors of Self

Develops this epistemic premise in dialogue with a diversity of Christian and secular, historical and modern perspectives. Aspects of human personhood, including the ever-elusive self, gain greater clarity and significance in the light of Christ's person and work.

Human Subjectivity and Renewal

At the center of individual human subjectivity, we encounter a broken, sin-blinded self in need of renewal and release. What healing we find comes to us as Christ's ecological presence works in and through others—the mirrors of self whose instrumental agency Christ employs in service to his own redemptive ends.
