Keeping Faith & Breaking Ground

"In the last resort a prophet who is not a poet must keep silent, and the prophet who is a poet cannot be understood. This after all was the perennial dilemma of the Hebrew prophets. There is perhaps only one way of resolving this particular dilemma: Let the prophet but die in Jerusalem, and he will not have lived in vain."   - Gabriel Marcel

This three part series provides an introduction to the Hebrew prophets and a closer look at three prophets in particular, Amos, Isaiah, and Jeremiah.

Reading the Bible is like looking out of a window and seeing a crowd out in the street shading their eyes and gazing with intense interest at something that we can't see because of the roof of the building from which we're peering out.  They gesture and they point and they speak in a language we can't decipher.  They are very excited about something.  Something is happening or is about to happen, but what is it?    - Karl Barth

This four part series takes the listener through an often imaginative overview of some of the most significant biblical stories. Using aspects of René Girard's mimetic theory as an interpretive lens through which to see the dynamics of the stories in both anthropological and theological perspectives.
