This is the first podcast of Soulen and Soulen – Letters to the Inquiring Mind on Theology and Scripture. Dr. Richard Soulen provides a brief overview of the podcast, how it came to be, and what will come next!

In both the Old Testament (written in Hebrew) and in the New Testament (written in Greek), the word Wisdom is a feminine noun and therefore considered a feminine principle.  The following sermon by Dr. Richard N. Soulen was delivered on Mother’s Day in the 1990s reflects on the role of Wisdom in our lives.  Today, we see an assault on women’s rights not only in Afghanistan but across the globe and here in America as well.  So… what is Wisdom? http://soulenandsoulen.com/

We can easily be dismayed by the hate and cruelty that exists in the world. But the response can be very simple: We are God’s children. We believe in love for our neighbor. We hope and pray for a bright future. And so, Christ is the image that we must pattern our lives after. http://soulenandsoulen.com/

In the previous podcast series, Dr. Richard N. Soulen studied two theologians of the 18th Century: John Wesley and Muḥammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb.  Both born in the same year and dying just months apart.  As part of research for that series, he discovered another coincidence… two 20th Century Theologians both born in the same year (1933) and in the same month (April): Dr. Richard N. Soulen and Seyyed Hossein Nasr. http://soulenandsoulen.com/

John Wesley (1703-1791) founder of the Methodist church and Muḥammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb (1703-1792) founder of Wahhabism, were born in the same year and died less than a year apart. What were the factors that influenced these two significant theologians to understand belief in God and expression of faith in such radically different ways? Dr. R. Kendall Soulen provides a conclusion to the series. http://soulenandsoulen.com/
