Misreading Scripture with Individualist Eyes - ch. 15
Welcome to the "Misreading Scripture" series! In a previous series, we studied the fantastic work by E. R. Richards & B. J. O'Brien, "Misreading Scripture Through Western Eyes".
We are thrilled to invite you to join our study of the brand new book in the series, "Misreading Scripture with Individualist Eyes", as we reconsider how individualism impacts our reading of Scripture. Over the next few weeks, we'll try to better understand how the cultural values of honor, shame, and patronage shape the world of the Bible, and how we can hear Scripture speak to us in our own context today in fresh and life-giving ways!
You can get your own copy of the book by visiting the publisher's link HERE, or through your preferred bookseller. It is available in digital, hardcopy, and audio formats!

"The Cats of Ulthar" and "The Cats" (Halloween Special)
Welcome to our Halloween Special!
Join Fr. Lee for a little spooky fun, as he shares a couple of his favorite seasonal stories.
WARNING: the stories here are spooky - not scary, just thrilling. But if that might upset you, then just skip it and wait for the Sunday sermon!
If you're still on-the-fence, let me share a short poem I include along with our Halloween candy each year:
"On the Eve of All Saints' Day, Jack-o-Lanterns light the way. God's children need no longer fear the ghosts and goblins gathered here. For evil ghouls with icy breath must bow to Him who conquered death."
Stories in this episode:
'The Cats of Ulthar" (1920) and "The Cats" (1925)
