In this podcast, VJN talks with Ramon Mayo about the key themes and theological principles in James Cone's "Cross and the Lynching Tree." How does Cone help us to discover a new way of looking at the cross in America, especially today? How does the hidden history of lynching impact our ability to live as "Kingdom citizens," especially as leaders who want to lean towards God's power to reconcile and heal all things? Ramon Mayo is the student ministries coordinator at South Suburban Vineyard in Chicago, a multi-ethnic church. He also works for Urban Ministries Inc., the largest black Christian media company in the U.S.
