How have inherited and contemporary notions of perfection distorted our theology and the way in which we have expressed and lived out our faith? Breaking, not Broken explores the foundations of our understanding of perfection, focusing in particular on Platonic and Aristotelian thought, which exemplifies human perfection as a male olympiad. It looks at how this conception of perfection subsequently impacts scripture, use of language, projections onto others, an individual's sense of self and how over the centuries this has shaped how the church has gained, retained, articulated and exercised power. Reflecting on a very different vision of perfection - that as expressed in the risen body of Jesus Christ, the book asks what that vision, taken seriously, would mean for church and those sections of society which have been marginalised throughout history.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. How have inherited and contemporary notions of perfection distorted our theology and the way in which we have expressed and lived out our faith?Breaking, not Broken exposes how Western Christianity, post-Constantine, assimilated a Greco-Roman ideal of the flawless body as its anthropology and built its theology, architecture, and memory around it. Against this ableist inheritance, Timothy Goode offers a radical alternative: a return to a risen body anthropology grounded in the wounded yet glorified body of Christ. Drawing deeply on disability and liberation theology, critical heritage studies, and his own lived experience of disability, Timothy Goode reframes how the Church understands the body, healing, time and space. Here, disabled lives are not marginal but central: living archives of Gods story, prophetic voices that disrupt and renew, and bearers of hope for a more just ecclesiology. Written with theological depth and human honesty, this book bridges scholarship and practice, inviting the Church to rediscover its true heritage not in monuments of stone or ideals of perfection, but in the scars of resurrection and the grace of embodied diversity.
