“How can I understand, unless someone guides me?”
The words of the Ethiopian eunuch on the road to Gaza: making connections between Isaiah's 'suffering servant' and himself. This exchange between Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch, so many years ago, feels contemporary in the way it speaks of justice, renewal and redemption to people in our society whose life experience is one of humiliation and injustice, those who get treated as outsiders and are searching for affirmation and hope.
A talk for The Fifth Sunday of Easter, 2 May 2021. Featuring Nina Simone performing 'Take me to the water' from High Priestess Of Soul, 1967
