The Way of Eden and the Bible’s Garden Story with John Dillon, Two Trees Podcast

Описание: Eden doesn’t disappear after Genesis 3. In this episode of the Biblical Reenchantment podcast, I sit down with pastor and Two Trees Podcast host John Dillon to talk about his book The Way of Eden—and why the Garden of Eden continues to shape the biblical story long after Adam and Eve leave the garden.

We’ll trace how Eden imagery appears in exile, in spiritual warfare, and in the everyday Christian life. What does it mean to resist the darkness without turning our neighbors into enemies? How do “pockets of Eden” form in households, friendships, and local churches? And how does Scripture—like a river in the wasteland—grow resilience in a noisy, unstable world?
We also explore dominion vs. dominance, the Bible’s use of tree and river imagery, and why the fruit of the Spirit is part of how Christ’s people bear witness to the kingdom of God right now.
