SHOUTS AND WHISPERS: RADICAL MEDITATIONS FOR LENT leads readers, day by day, through some of the most troubling parts of the Bible. During the season of Lent, many Christians take on intentional practices of prayer, fasting, and repentance. This book is meant to complement these practices. Tackling New Testament and early Christian texts about women and enslaved people, these meditations invite readers to wrestle and ask challenging questions of Christian scriptures as a way of exploring more deeply God's profound hope for our world.
