We’ve been doing a study of NT Wright’s book, How God Became King. It’s been a very slow study, sometimes make less than a page of progress in our hour of discussion. There’s been lots of repetition. I’ve spent time going into the background – biblical, historical, theological, linguistic, and philosophical – to what we read in Wright’s book. There’s been lots of repetition from session to session. My primary goal is to produce understanding. If you’d like to dip into the study, here are the recordings of the sessions thus far:
In this last session we listened to Graham Kendrick’s creedal song, We Believe, focusing on this missional passage:
We believe He sends His Spirit
On His church with gifts of power
God, His word of truth affirming,
Sends us to the nations now.
