Epiclesis

Lens of Suffering

Our Scripture passage for this teaching was that great story of Ezekiel's vision of dry bones. Though it's common, and quite natural, to see the episode through the lens of re-creation and restoration, our community of faith cast an eye toward that story through the lens of suffering. Did you know that Ezekiel, the one to whom God gave the vision, was a prophet who suffered greatly?
One thing we learned along the way: Perhaps we shouldn't expect to go speak a prophetic word without first walking the road marked with suffering. Join us for this podcast teaching to hear more about what a vision of dry bones and taking up your cross might have in common.
