As Walter Brueggemann says in Reverberations of Faith: A Theological Handbook of Old Testament Themes:
βThe trick of community is to hold together real differences of interest in the midst of treasuring a passionate commitment to belong faithfully to one another.β
Long-ing For Life 
Hello Nate,
What do you think of Reverberations?
I’ve been reading more and more things from Brueggemann that I really like. I didn’t give him enough of a chance when I first read Testimony, Dispute, Advocacy…but even though I’m increasingly appreciative, I must say that he can be verbose at times…and sometimes on topics that just don’t interest me
