A Violent God-Image
Psychotherapist and religion scholar Dr. Matthias Beier confronts one of the most destructive forces in religion: violent images of God that shape faith, politics, and the human psyche. He shows how fear-driven interpretations of sin, judgment, and the cross have fueled misogyny, racism, colonialism, war, Christian nationalism, and ecological exploitation.
Drawing on the revolutionary insights of rebel theologian Eugen Drewermann, Beier dismantles these God-images and recovers a powerful alternative vision of faith grounded in trust that is both liberating and healing.
