The Asians emerge from their pause, presumably from somewhere between the kitchen and the metaphysical realm, to talk about food. Except, as usual, the food is not really about food.

Matt and Dan return to a question that has been left simmering for some time: what place do persons have in the economy of salvation? If salvation is a highway to heaven, are persons merely passengers - or are they somehow part of the road itself? And if persons matter, what happens to the dumplings?

The conversation winds through some old assumptions about what Christianity is for, what salvation is supposed to accomplish, and why we have such a strange habit of talking about God as though the divine economy were an Excel spreadsheet.

At the centre of it all is the person: our person, other persons, and, most awkwardly, the person of God. What we think a person is turns out to have rather large consequences for what we think salvation is.

So the Asians do what Asians do: peel the onion, open another drawer, and discover several more layers of personhood - rest, reception, and relation. Somewhere along the way, the question of whether heaven cares about catering becomes surprisingly difficult to avoid.
