Bill and I committed to talk every day this week and next to prepare for the next two Sundays of teaching. This podcast is a continuation of conversations in which we frame how we will approach teaching together. Bill talked over the last month about three broad categories: God, Prayer, and Death. Each of these, how they function and what they mean, are aspects of mysterium tremendum et fascinans, or that which attracts and repels us. Perhaps they are one and the same - we are attracted and repelled by a single idea. But again, these three, God, Prayer, and Death occupy so much of our human attention. And so we are attending to them, allowing ourselves to be simultaneously attracted and repelled.
Thanks for listening!
