Hope and The Walking Dead (2019)

Martin, J. (2019, October 7). ‘I want to tell you a different story’: Hope parallels in The Walking Dead and the resurrection.  

• Explores parallels between a significantly traumatic event in The Walking Dead–and one character’s response to it–and how early Christ followers responded to Christ’s resurrection.

“...there are some parallels between the narrative Siddiq tells the community following the Whisperers attack, and the narrative represented by Christ’s resurrection. In both, narratives of hope offer alternative understandings of the world, each other, and our relationships. They also invite us to engage in a different set of relations with regards to (1) the features of the events we experience as well as (2) with one another.”
