I recently had the opportunity to speak with Ruth Ryder about the N.T. Wright book The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus’s Crucifixion, highlighting its theme of rejecting the violence of the world for Christ’s new way of doing things and finding some commonalities in how libertarians approach power and coercion.
Ruth is a graduate of Eastern Michigan University (BA, History) as well as Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (MA, Intercultural Studies) and the University of Notre Dame (MTS, History of Christianity). She has previously published with The Libertarian Christian Institute, The Foundation for Economic Education, The Federalist, and the academic journals Worship and the Christian Libertarian Review, where she is the assistant editor.
