Description: | Preview comments by Rev. Marshall Campbell--This program in "adult theological re-education" is based on the book of the same title by Marcus Borg. In each of the ten sessions Borg develops issues in which the scriptures are taken seriously but not literally. Some of Borg's phrases may be forbidding at first, i.e. "precritical naivete" and "postcritical naivete." Bottom line: participants should be willing to engage the Bible at deeper levels. Reward: uncovering biblical truth which is insightful, persuasive, and powerful, all-beit metaphorical and not literal. Each of the ten sessions assume a class time of 2-hours in order to take full advantage of the interactive and experiential aspects of the lessons but each DVD segment is only between 7-12 minutes in length. Includes guide. 1. Reading Lenses: Seeing the Bible Again 2. Reading Lenses: The Bible and God 3. Reading Lenses: History and Metaphor 4. Reading the Creation Stories Again 5. Reading the Pentateuch Again 6. Reading the Prophets Again 7. Reading Israel's Wisdom Again 8. Reading the Gospels Again 9. Reading Paul Again 10. Reading Revelation Again and the Epilogue |
