Abstract

Oliver and Ante pick up their conversation from the last episode, debriefing Ante's sermon, only to dialogue on Christ's experience of God-forsakenness, the existential impact that might have on people who suffer, why God refused to provide Job an answer, how the cosmic conflict framework might illuminate matters, how the cross offers an inverted theophany when compared to the divine discourse in the book of Job, the lessons learned from two family members, the radical cognitive displacement experienced by centurion at the cross, only to conclude with a great biblical passage as a beautiful coda to the episode.
