Take It With You!
As we learn how to live as disciples of Jesus Christ, here helpful tools will be offered to aid in your study.
The intent in reading the Scripture, among people of faith, is to extend the range of our listening to the God who reveals himself in word, to become acquainted with the ways in which he has spoken in various times and places, along with the ways in which people respond when he speaks. The Christian conviction is that God speaks reality into being -- creation into shape, salvation into action. It is also a Christian conviction that we are that which is spoken into a creation shape and a salvation action. We are what happens when the word is spoken. Ezra Pound's H. Selwyn Mauberly expresses the zest of this kind of reader/listener: "Tell it to me, all of it, I guzzle with outstretched ears!"
