About this listen

On this special episode, I am joined by Alex Gapud to discuss Jesus and empire. We look at Mark 5:1-20, the story of Jesus and the Gerasene Demoniac, and Ched Myers’ interpretation of it. We also lean on Alex’s expertise as a scholar of the British empire to discuss how the effects of the colonial era are still felt today.
