Rewilding God Week 2

The complicated family history of the faith we inherited: Episode four.

Ezekiel starts with a theological grenade. God wasn't back with the remnant in Jerusalem - God was here, with the exiles, in Babylon. “In my thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was among the exiles by the Kebar River, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.”

Jerusalem has fallen. The temple is destroyed. People have been killed, displaced or deported. The city that represented security, identity and the presence of God is desolate. Welcome to the world of Lamentations.

Most of our Christian Bible consists of writings inherited from ancient Israel and Judaism. Christianity didn’t begin with a blank page at Christmas. Jesus, his disciples and the first Christians inherited an already ancient, complicated and contested conversation.

What happens between Ascension and Pentecost?
