The Prophetic Voice: Old Testament Tradition in Today’s World

Theology Day at the Basilica Friday, May 5, 2006 9:00am—1:00pm

When we use the term “prophetic” in the church, we are referring to a very particular dynamic in God’s redemptive work. The Old Testament scriptures provide many examples of God using simple human beings to call back and redirect a wayward people. Fr. Dale Launderville, OSB, will examine some of these early figures to help us understand the prophetic tradition that is our heritage, and will lead us in a discussion of the role of the prophetic in addressing the challenges of our world today.
