Totally loved this conversation between two wise Christian thinkers. Together, they explore the contours of “the prophetic” in times like these.
While this conversation was recorded prior to the murder of George Floyd it – in my opinion – stands up. Dr. Kenyatta Gilbert teaches at Howard University and has authored numerous works, including: Exodus Preaching: Crafting Sermons about Justice & Hope. Dr. Walter Brueggemann is a retired Columbia, Hebrew Bible scholar within the Christian tradition, and a prolific author, whose works include: The Prophetic Imagination, and in response to COVID19 Virus as a Summons to Faith: Biblical Reflections in a Time of Loss, Grief, and Uncertainty. This video was first posted by Sojourners in December of 2017.
