We\u2019re on summer vacation! The Queer Theology podcast has been \u201con air\u201d for 4 years and over 200 episodes. All summer long, we\u2019re releasing a throwback episode that looks at the upcoming week\u2019s lectionary. Here\u2019s your first one!\nThis week Brian and Fr. Shay tackle a short (and rather random) passage from the book of Amos. What does Amos\u2019s response to being called a prophet have to teach us today? What does it mean to be a prophet in our own communities? All this and more on this week\u2019s podcast.\nRead the transcript (PDF)\nAmos 7:12-15\nAmaziah said to Amos, \u201cYou who see things, go, run away to the land of Judah, eat your bread there, and prophesy there; but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king\u2019s holy place and his royal house.\u201d\nAmos answered Amaziah, \u201cI am not a prophet, nor am I a prophet\u2019s son; but I am a shepherd, and a trimmer of sycamore trees. But the Lord took me from shepherding the flock, and the Lord said to me, \u2018Go, prophesy to my people Israel.\u2019\nThe post I Am Not A Prophet \u2013 Amos 7:12-15 #Throwback appeared first on Queer Theology.
