Welcome to the Wilderness Wilderness Time
-
- Christianity
We don’t know how to embrace the wilderness—its uncertainty, suffering, and loss. How might we follow our biblical forebears and trust God’s lead?
The current pandemic is a disorienting and disruptive experience for the church and world. We find ourselves having to navigate unfamiliar terrain without a clear map. There is widespread suffering, loss, and scarcity. Like the people of Israel in its wilderness sojourn, we must learn how to trust and be led by God anew. This episode will explore the biblical wilderness narratives as a framework for the present situation and explore what it means to experience disruption and deliverance through the agency of God. With guest Dr. Michael Chan, assistant professor of Old Testament at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN.
