“Emergents, because they are postmodern, believe in paradox; or more correctly, they recognize the ubiquity of paradox and are not afraid of it. Instead, they see in its operative presence the tension where vitality lives”

Season One – Episode 4 Scripture Reading: The Letter to the Ephesians

3

Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians, with themes of reconciliation and unity, pairs sweetly with Richard Rohr’s book Simplicity. In six lively chapters, this iconic text holds some of our most treasured verses right alongside some of our lesser appreciated ones! Working through this tension is part of the beauty in considering the letter in it’s entirety. Take a deep breath, quiet your mind, and let’s give Ephesians a fresh full hearing.
