New 6-12 week study for adults and young adults led by Walter Brueggemann

Old Testament scholar presents this compelling faith exploration and develops the contemporary significance and relevance of the Old Testament prophets as uncredentialed purveyors of convenant and moral coherence in a world of power, money and violence.

In keeping with the format established by two earlier editions, this new Emracing study engages participants with two components. (1) A DVD, here featuring five 10-15 minute presentations, followed by additional video with a small, diverse group of adults as they respond and discuss the topics, and (2) a participant workbook containing all the material needed by class participants as well as for the facilitator.
