The Transformative Power of the Psalms with Walter Brueggemann

www.theologues.com/podcast
"We don't have to be nice in front of each other's presence and we don't have to nice in front of God, we just have to be honest."
Arni Zacharissen had the privilege of sitting down with prominent theologian and modern sage, Walter Brueggemann, to discuss Brueggemann's newest book on the Psalms "From Whom No Secrets Are Hid: Introducing the Psalms". Brueggemann has written more books than I can count and he's influences many modern day pastors and theologians with his in-depth analysis of the Old Testament. The questions of how the Church finds deeper honesty, transformation and justice within the Psalms are brilliantly addresses by Dr. Brueggemann. How do we connect the mysteries of faith into the cultural conversation? The answers are in the Psalms. Learn more on this captivating After Dark episode of the Theologues podcast.

Boy, do I ever wish I could have a transcript of this interview. If I get a chance I'll transcribe some of the passages I think are the most incredibly forceful. This is a great interview.
