About this listen
Gain deep spiritual insights into the Bible.
The Bible is a treasure trove of deep spiritual insights and heroes of the faith. While Catholics frequently deepen their spirituality through the New Testament, the Old Testament is often overlooked. As you will discover in Biblical Spiritualities, however, the Old Testament is a treasure of wisdom, encouragement, and inspiring accounts of faith.
Your guide for this journey is one of the country's leading Old Testament scholars, Prof. Kathleen O'Connor, PhD. The William Marcellus McPheeters Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, she was president of the Catholic Biblical Association of America, 2008-2009. Under her guidance you will gain invaluable insight into the spirituality of the Old Testament.
In this 12-lecture audio course, you will look at themes and passages selected from a variety of Old Testament books. Although these sacred books address the realities of ancient Israel, their messages resound throughout the centuries to believers in search of the God who makes all things new. No single book or text provides a road map for true spiritual living by itself; instead these texts work together to call us to witness God's presence in the midst of both joy and suffering. The God that emerges in the Old Testament is ultimately one of hope.
This course will open your mind and heart to the Old Testament's spiritual jewels. You will love this series.

Luke and Acts 101: How to Read and Understand Luke's Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles

Story
The Gospel of Luke and Acts of the Apostles are two parts of a single triumphant work. Each an epic work in its own right, together they proclaim the gospel message and narrate the gripping story of the Church’s early days. Using the metaphor of a double helix, Fr. William Burton asks you to imagine Luke’s gospel and Acts as a single account with many parallels or rungs connecting the two sides of the twisted ladder.

Story
In his first major work since The Universal Christ, one of our most prominent spiritual voices offers a wholehearted and hope-filled model for the world today, grounded in the timeless wisdom of the Hebrew prophets. How do we live compassionately in a time of violence and despair? What can we do with our private disappointments and the anger we feel in such an unjust world? In his most personal book yet, Richard Rohr turns to the writings of the Jewish prophets, revealing how some of the lesser-read books of the Bible offer us a crucial path forward today.
