Claim This Podcastby World Outspoken
Podcast Overview
<p>“Questions From The Pew” is just that, a forum for discussion on the issues that are ruminating in the minds of church-goers, but that are often not raised from the pulpit. We’re here to address the intersection of our culture and the church, which is made incarnate by the folks who populate church pews every Sunday across the nation. We see a prime importance in actively identifying the very potent challenges that arise when a Christian steps into the real world, a place which abounds in diverse cultures, perspectives and ideologies. Here, no inquiry is off limits. If God is willing to engage with every aspect of our humanity, certainly we, as Christians, should not be afraid to run that gambit either. It may be tough, reconciling a millennias old value system, within our 21s t century culture, but here at, “Questions From The Pew”, we believe in creativity within orthodoxy. Not only can we identify the questions that arise from our culture, but we can readily engage with them in both an intellectually and theologically honest manner. Too long has the Church shied away from grappling with tough questions and nuanced issues. No longer.</p>

S6E12 - Can We Read Jonah Better? (pt. 1)
<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">The biblical book of Jonah is one of the most well known in the Bible. It’s found in nearly every children’s Bible. Even those who do not read the Bible or hold to the Christian or Jewish faiths are acquainted with this narrative. With a man being swallowed by a fish only to be spat out again, it’s little wonder why. But that’s probably where the knowledge of the story ends for most people, especially for those who do not read the Bible or identify as adherents of the faiths that hold it as Scripture.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">If asked about the point of the story, there would probably only be few who could give an answer. And that’s not surprising. After all, it’s an ancient story and we are modern readers. The questions we ask about the text often don’t allow the text to speak for itself. Where modern readers are concerned with how Jonah might have survived in the bellow of a fish, ancient readers likely would have asked why Jonah is portrayed the way he is. Perhaps we need to ask better questions.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">In this episode, we ask: How do our questions affect our reading of Jonah? Do our questions clarify what’s going on in the narrative or only muddy our understanding? How can we read Jonah in a way that moves beyond Sunday morning or Sunday school?
