Listen ""Jesus Acted Out the Alternative to Empire," by Walter Brueggemann — Gordon Matties"
Episode Synopsis
On July 27, Gordon honoured the late Walter Brueggemann with this timely sermon on 'totality,' drawing on 1 Kings 10:26-29 (Solomon's extractive economy), Jeremiah 22:13-17 (Jeremiah speaks against the king), and Isaiah 19:23-25 (Isaiah’s alternative to imperial power politics).Unfortunately, we experienced a power outage that morning, which cut off the beginning of the sermon and dramatically affected the audio quality as we tried to get the equipment back on... Hang in there until about the 5 minute mark where it improves a lot.
