Description:

Rambo draws on contemporary studies in trauma and relates them to the death and resurrection of Jesus to develop a theology that addresses trauma and its aftermath. Traumatic experiences can permanently alter lives, forcing victims to 'œremain' in perpetual turmoil, often feeling as if the person they were before is dead. Redemption can come through Jesus' death and resurrection. Images of the Spirit from the Gospel of John suggest ways of understanding life in the midst of the trauma of 'œremaining.' This theology of the Spirit helps us understand and deal with trauma as a form of death in the midst of life.
