Episode 10: The Strength of Gentleness


Listen Later

Jesus said, 'Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.' But in a culture that prizes strength and often overlooks meekness (or gentleness), what is the value of gentleness? This Forecast is an arrangement of writing, music and conversation, some of which have been published on Foreshadow and some elsewhere, connected by their witness to the strength of gentleness. Contributors include Sam Seligman and Scott Stevens. Host: Josh Seligman
