| Description: | Walter Brueggemann, arguably America’s leading Old Testament scholar and theologian, takes us on a wild ride through the poetic prophecy of the Hebrew Scripture, identifying cultural contexts, putting a framework to Israel’s history, and, most significantly—and at times challengingly!—drawing connections between Israel’s sociological, economic and spiritual status and that of America today. Session 1: Moses, Pharaoh, the Prophets and us Session 2: The Prophets as Uncredentailed Purveyors of Covenant Session 3: Moral Coherence in a World of Power, Money, and Violence Session 4: The Shrill Rhetoric that Breaks Denial Session 5: The Grief of Loss as Divine Judgment Session 6: The Promissory Langugage that Breaks Despair Each session has a presentation followed by a filmed interaction with a small group.
