This is the second lecture from the We Who Wrestle With God tour.What does it mean that your God is whatever you put first? Why are the stories that grip you not false but hyper-real? Why is work identical to sacrifice, and what does that reveal about the nature of the covenantal relationship between humanity and the spirit of being? What happened when Cain offered his second rate effort and why is that same temptation available to every one of us in every decision we make? What is the story of Job really about? And what is the one promise that runs through the entire biblical corpus for those who are willing to offer their best?These are not abstract questions. They are the questions that determine the structure of your life whether you answer them consciously or not.
