The chaos of the cross as the fractal of life : the birth of the post resurrection, missional dimension in John

Abstract

In this article the author argues from a post foundationalist point of view in favour of an interdisciplinary research methodology that could contribute to new innovative possibilities for doing research. In his article he brings chaos theory in discussion with NT studies with specific reference to John’s view of the cross. He then goes on to illustrate how John’s resurrection and appearance narratives can serve as an empowering metaphor for existential living that brings not only chaos theory and NT studies, but also missiology in a creative interdisciplinary dialogue with one another.
