What We Missed In..Messy Wisdom (6) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wisdom is both lauded by Qoholet and our culture as something to be pursued and prized. But Ecclesiates paints a complicated and messy picture of the benefits of wisdom. Wisdom is both powerful and fragile, it gives and it takes away, it is something to appeal to, but also a source of exasperation. What can we learn from Qoholet's picture of the smart and the dimwit? And how does the spectre of death inform our wisdom?
What We Missed In...Chronos and Kairos (5) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're talking about our most valuable resource and our greatest enemy - time! In this second talk we examine the two greek words for time and their associated gods - chronos and kairos. We seek to understand how our hyper-speedy world brings a cruelty to our times and seasons and how the wisdom of our sage can help us transform this cruelty into curiosity.
What We Missed In...How to Inhabit Time (4) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ecclesistaes 3.1-13 is one of the book's most well-known chapters, but also one of its most misunderstood. In this riddle-like poem of 28 seasons, time is enigmatic - both something we can inhabit but also something done to us. What is this sage Qohelet saying we should do with time? Today, we look at some of the 'essentials' of what he is saying and not saying and explore how previous readings of these verses have been sometimes unhelpful and damaging.
Love Does....Always Looks for the Best (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today Heather helps us understand the posture and spirit of love, which 'always looks for the best'. How is this both a challenge and joy as we seek to engage with our world around us?
