This collection of essays by Robert Funk delves into the contributions of notable artists and intellectuals, including Kafka, Beckett, Henry Miller, Castaneda, Fowles, and Thoreau, to illuminate the true successors of Jesus. In the section titled 'Voices of Silence,' Funk examines the interplay between language and contemporary reality. He ultimately addresses the pivotal theological question of whether individuals can identify a genuine world to which they can fully commit, offering twenty-one propositions on theology in response.

#MeToo in the Bible: A Tale of Two Tamars In Genesis, Tamar is the daughter-in-law of Judah (twice), and intriguingly, also the mother of two of his children, the twins Perez and Zerah. In the biblical genealogies, Perez is listed as an ancestor of King David and of Jesus. In Second Samuel 13, another Tamar is the beautiful princess from the tribe of Judah. She grew up in the palace of her father, King David. She was raped by her brother Amnon, David’s first born and heir to the throne.
