New Great Themes of Scripture (CD)
New Great Themes of Scripture (CD)
Richard Rohr's dynamic preaching has opened up the Scriptures to people worldwide. The original Great Themes of Scriptures cassettes were very popular. Now after twenty-five years of study and prayer and teaching, Richard takes a unique approach in this entirely new series.

Instead of treating the Bible as a collection of isolated books, he treats it as one inspired theology. Woven through it he uncovers nine "prime ideas" that gradually unfold through both the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures: shame, and separation, vengance and victims, law, grace, the redefinition of power, mystery, fear, and intimacy, the paradox of the cross and the process of divinization or "mutual indwelling."

Fr. Richard describes the Bible as a text in travail, containing not just conclusions, but a process which mirrors our own journey (three steps forward, two steps backward). In the three steps forward, Scripture always reveals that we are related to something infinite and that ours is an enchanted and trustworthy universe.

Much of religion discloses human beings trying to become spiritual. We are already spritual, says Fr. Richard, our desperate task with the Spirit's help is to be more fully human. Our journey reveals the whole story of human history -- a story of transformation. Throughout history, human consciousness develops so that we can finally imitate and relate to a totally non-violent God.
