Sunday (with Jack Franicevich)
October 13, 2023
Alastair Roberts
Jack Franicevich, a deacon and curate at Cornerstone Valparaiso and adjunct professor of writing at Valparaiso University, joins me to discuss his new book, 'Sunday' (https://athanasiuspress.org/products/sunday-keeping-christian-time). We talk about the scriptural teaching concerning the Sabbath, and how it relates to and can inform Christian understandings of Sunday, and of time more generally.
