They emphasize the need to move away from transactional and isolated approaches to scripture and instead engage in relational and communal exploration of who God is. The conversation touches on the harm caused by misinterpretations of scripture and the importance of humility and healing in our reading and understanding of the Bible. The conversation explores the themes of power, prophecy, love, and complexity. It delves into the stories of Amos, Paul, and John the Baptist, highlighting the silencing and persecution of prophets. The guys discuss the distinction between the shallow heart which can be deceived, and the deep heart, which is oriented towards the truth, emphasizing the need to see beyond appearances and trust in the unseen. They also address the challenges of navigating the current cultural and political climate, urging humility, openness, and a focus on personal relationships. The conversation concludes with a reminder to prioritize scripture, prayer, and serving others. For more information on Fr.
