What does it mean to build a life around the radical idea of "not killing"? In this episode of The Legacy Project, Jim Copple sits down with Craig Keen, a retired professor of systematic theology whose life has been a journey to the intellectual heights of philosophical theology.

Craig shares the "first theological act" that defined his life—becoming a pacifist during the Vietnam War, and how the works of Søren Kierkegaard helped him navigate a life of "ambiguity" within the Church of the Nazarene. We discuss the influence of a talkative mother, a quiet father, and the powerful realization that a legacy isn't about awards, but about giving your life away.
