Theologian Darby Ray suggests turningChristian behavior from the compliantto the prophetic through "christicimagination." "Part of what is means to be aChristian," Ray says, "is to livecreatively and courageously, using'christic imagination' to confront evilin ingenious, unexpected ways." Ray'sethic of incarnation and ingenuitytherefore imbues resistance andcunning with the power of the sacredand "recognizes ingenuity, imagination, cunning, surprise, andparody as appropriate and responsibleresponses to certain contexts andquandaries."
Darby Kathleen Ray is Professor of Religious Studies and Director of the Millsaps Faith and Work Initiative at Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi.
