Most of us open the Bible with hope that our hearts will burn within us and God’s love will be made clear to us. But, all too often, the scriptures seem closed to us and our hearts burn with a sense of failure to hear any clear word from God.
In this class we will be guided by ten foundational texts from the Hebrew and Christian scriptures. We will practice different ways of reading and being read by scripture. In doing so, hopefully, we will find our hearts burning within us, our lives transformed by God’s presence and God’s word present to us. |
