| 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 times challengingly!—drawing connections between Israel’s sociological, economic and spiritual status and that of America today. What was the message of these remarkable poet-prophets in their own time and place? What is their message for us today? Each of the six sessions begins with 10-15 minute presentatin followed by a filmed interaction with a small group. The DVD is 130.40. It is suggested that each participant have a participant's book. The sessions are-- Moses, Pharoah, the Prophets and Us The Prophets as Uncredentialed Purveyors of Covenant Moral Coherence in a world of Power, Money, and Violence The Shrill Rhetoric that Breaks Denial The Grief of Loss as Divine Judgment The Promissory Langugage that Breaks Despair |
