The great Christian scholar of the biblical prophets died on June 5, 2025. Yet, in the lineage of the prophets, who called humanity to face its hardest realities, this profound, warm, and timeless conversation is a stunning offering straight into our present. "The amazing contemporaneity of this material," Walter Brueggemann says to Krista in this conversation from 2011, and we relive by relistening, "is that the issues are the same: the world we have trusted in is vanishing before our eyes and the world that is coming at us feels like a threat to us and we can't quite see the shape of it." He  embodied  as much as taught a prophetic way of fearless truth-telling, fierce hope, and disarming language that can break through "human hearts and human hurt.." What is the calling of the Christian in a time like this, and what is the role of the preacher?
