Excellent. Thanks for the series.

This is wonderful. I’m teaching Hebrews in my Sunday school class in the coming months, and I am adding these reflections to Hebrews 2 because I think it is so profound and true.

Wonderful series. Both theologically and pastorally. Three observations:

1. Looking at the title I thought that it might be impossible to come up with a more quixotic project than understanding Jesus' psychology. The posts were anything but, being beautifully thought out. ...even though in the final analysis they are still negative theology (unfortunate phrase in context).

2. This series (and The Shape of Joy as an extension of, I am guessing) comprises what you said, but did not detail, was/is missing in Jordan Peterson's theological musings.

And 3. The Shape of Joy, I am guessing, gives your answer to how a cruciform life can be a blessed life. If so, I look forward to the read.

I want to cast out the tyranny of death, but specifically how do I do that? What must I do?

My question exactly. Also: is it even in our power to accomplish this ourselves? I'm guessing not. But what and how much, then, is our responsibility.
