• Does God have a “good work” for me now? At this time in my life?
• Is there a new way for us to listen and respond together?
Marjory Zoet Bankson will facilitate this exploration. Her books, Call to the Soul and Creative Aging will be the primary texts for this class.
We will focus on the eighth century BCE prophets, paying attention to the cultural/political conditions of the time, the prophetic call, the message itself, and the consequences for both the prophets and the nation. We will read and discuss the books of Amos, Hosea, Jeremiah, and first Isaiah. There will be opportunities to reflect on the relevance, or lack of it, of their mode of prophecy to our times and lives.
Ken Burton will facilitate this class.
