“God is portrayed in Revelation, not as uncontrollably angry, but as inexorably just. God's faithfulness to the creation, all humanity, and the church leads to the divine war against evil, Empire, and their lies, represented by the unholy trinity and named ‘Babylon.' The three members of that unholy triumvirate together meet their final fate, along with those who ultimately refuse the mercy of God, as well as Death and Hades themselves… In other words, God wins: ‘It is done!'…." – Michael J. Gorman, Reading Revelation Responsibly, 158.

In this episode we talk with Prof Michael J Gorman, New Testament Scholar and author of nearly twenty books including several major works on Paul. In this discussion, Prof Gorman draws a distinction between historical criticism and the historical critical method. He argues that understanding the original context is necessary, but not sufficient when it comes to interpreting the Bible today. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/faith-at-the-frontiers/message

“The worship of God is the heartbeat of the cosmos, even when we humans on earth do not see it, participate in it, or value it. Only God is worthy to receive what others, especially powerful political figures, may want or demand: our total devotion, our praise, our crowns.” – Michael J. Gorman, Reading Revelation Responsibly, 107.

In this episode of "Calmly Considered," Allan converses with Joy Moore and Michael Gorman on the subject of abortion. How can Christians offer a more robust understanding of abortion that moves beyond the pitting of rights against each other? How does Christian doctrine inform the discussion? If the church is an alternative to the way of society, how do Christians utilize their unique witness to be an incarnational presence to women in difficult pregnancies and the unborn children they carry? How does abortion affect ethnic minorities? Rev. Dr. Joy J. Moore is an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church and is the Professor of Biblical Preaching at Luther Seminary in St. Paul Minnesota. She participates in two weekly podcasts: "Sermon Brainwave," a conversation on the Revised Common Lectionary readings for the coming Sunday and "I Love to Tell the Story," a conversation on the Narrative Lectionary readings for the coming Sunday. Dr. Michael J. Gorman holds the Raymond E. Brown Chair in Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland. He has written many books including Reading Revelation Responsibly and Paul, a New Covenant Jew: Rethinking Pauline Theology.

The early Church initiated many struggles for the cause of social justice: opposition to slavery, capital punishment, and other institutions of pagan society. But the condemnation of abortion was singular in its consistency and vehemence, from the very beginning of the Gospel proclamation.

Today's episode is the conclusion of our series on the #NewTestament, and I couldn't think of a better guest than Dr. Michael J. Gorman, Raymond E. Brown Professor of Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary and University in Baltimore, MD. Dr. Gorman has written nearly twenty books on the New Testament, the letters of Paul, and #Revelation. His book Reading Revelation Responsibly is a favorite among teachers and ministers alike, and for this reason I wanted to talk with him about what exactly the book of Revelation is.You can find most of Dr. Gorman's book on his Amazon author's page: https://www.amazon.com/Michael-J.-Gorman/e/B001JP7N0K%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share

Nijay interviews Dr. Michael J. Gorman on 20+ years of scholarship on the subject of Paul, the cross, and the Christian life.

Dr. Michael J. Gorman, American New Testament Scholar and author of "Reading Revelation Responsibly", joins Pastor Scott for a discussion about the book of Revelation.

Welcome to More Christ, where we seek to bring some of the world's most interesting and insightful guests to discuss life's central and abiding questions. In this forty ninth episode in a series of discussions, I'm joined by the delightful Dr Michael J. Gorman. Michael J. Gorman is an American New Testament scholar. He is the Raymond E. Brown Professor of Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary and University. From 1995 to 2012 he was dean of St. Mary's Ecumenical Institute. Gorman specializes especially in the letters, theology, and spirituality of the apostle Paul. He is associated with the "participationist perspective" on Paul's theology. His additional specialties are the book of Revelation, theological and missional interpretation of Scripture, the gospel of John, and early Christian ethics. Gorman was born and raised in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, graduating from Glen Burnie High School in Glen Burnie, Maryland. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree summa cum laude in French from Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts. He received the Master of Divinity and Doctor of Philosophy cum laude in New Testament from Princeton Theological Seminary, where he was also a teaching fellow in New Testament and an instructor in New Testament Greek. He has also been a visiting professor at Duke Divinity School, Regent College, Carey Baptist College (New Zealand), Wesley Theological Seminary, and two theological schools in Africa. Gorman has led several study trips to Greece/Turkey/Rome and to France/Switzerland. A United Methodist, Gorman is an active layperson and a popular teacher at colleges, seminaries, churches, and conferences representing many traditions. In the mid-2010s, despite still being a Methodist, Gorman began teaching in a Roman Catholic context. His older son, Rev. Dr. Mark Gorman, is a pastor and theologian who is also on the faculty of St. Mary's Ecumenical Institute. Gorman is the author of nearly twenty books and more than sixty articles on Biblical interpretation and on ethics.

The centrality of the cross of Jesus in Christian spirituality cannot be overestimated (Phil. 2:5-8; 1 Cor. 2:2). But what does this cruciform or cross-shaped spirituality spoken of by the Apostle Paul mean and look like? And how might it be more purposefully applied by American evangelicals and other Christians to our present circumstances, including multifaith engagement. Michael J. Gorman is the guest who helps us explore this. Dr. Gorman holds the Raymond E. Brown Chair in Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary and University, Baltimore, Maryland. A highly regarded New Testament scholar, he is the author of a trilogy of books on cruciformity, including Cruciformity: Paul's Narrative Spirituality of the Cross, Inhabiting the Cruciform God: Kenosis, Justification, and Theosis in Paul's Soteriology, and Becoming the Gospel; Paul, Participation, and Mission. He has also written Reading Revelation Responsibly: Uncivil Worship and Witness and Elements of Biblical Exegesis: A Basic Guide for Students and Ministers.

With the ever-broadening divide in the civic arena, disagreements have begun to arise about what it even means to be an American. Suddenly, the popular measure for a true American is whether or not they happen to agree with me. What does it look like to be a Patriotic Christian in our present political environment?

I interviewed Michael J. Gorman about his book Participating in Christ: Explorations in Paul’s Theology and Spirituality (Baker Academic, 2019). I ask Michael how some common refrains stack up against Paul’s understanding of participation, how the cross not only reveals Christ and God, but also what it means to be human. We talk about co-resurrection and how that shapes how we speak of justification, how Michael’s work on theosis is more narrative than metaphysical, and if there’s a relationship between Paul’s union with Christ language and Matthew 25’s presence of Christ in the least of these. Finally we talk about his deuteron-Pauline letter to the contemporary church in North America.Michael J. Gorman holds the Raymond E. Brown Chair in Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary’s Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland. He is the author of numerous books, including The Death of the Messiah and the Birth of the New Covenant, Reading Revelation Responsibly, Abide and Go, as well as his “participation trilogy”: Cruciformity, Inhabiting the Cruciform God, and Becoming the Gospel: Paul, Participation, and Mission.

I sat down with Michael J. Gorman to discuss his recent book on the Gospel of John, Abide and Go: Missional Theosis in the Gospel of John (Cascade 2018). We talk theosis, participation, spirituality, and mission – and how, in this gospel, these categories are not as separated as we might have thought. Gorman’s work reconfigures our thinking on a lot of topics, from forgiveness of sins, to the formation of community, and the ethic of enemy love.Buy the bookMichael J. Gorman holds the Raymond E.

He formerly served as dean of the Ecumenical Institute of Theology at St. Mary's.

In his new book, Participating in Christ: Explorations in Paul's Theology and Spirituality (Baker Academic, 2019), renowned scholar Michael Gorman examines the important Pauline theme of participation in Christ, a topic of great interest in New Testament circles and one that is central to Paul's theology and spirituality. Building on his previous work on the topic, Gorman carefully examines participation in Christ in Paul's letters. His book explores this theme across the letters and includes in-depth studies of key texts such as Galatians 2, 2 Corinthians 5, and Philippians 2. Gorman also explores the contemporary significance of participating in Christ for Christian life and ministry, arguing that it has wide implications for the life of the believer. Throughout the book, Gorman insightfully unpacks the many theological, spiritual, and pastoral dimensions of participation in Christ and shows its close connection to such related themes as cruciformity, resurrection, justification, theosis, mission, and apocalyptic. Dr. Michael J. Gorman is the Raymond E. Brown Professor of Biblical Studies and Theology at St. Mary's Seminary & University in Baltimore, Maryland. He formerly served as dean of the Ecumenical Institute of Theology at St. Mary's. Gorman is the author of numerous books, including Cruciformity: Paul's Narrative Spirituality of the Cross, Inhabiting the cruciform God, Scripture and Its Interpretation, and Elements of Biblical Exegesis. Jonathan Wright is a PhD student in New Testament at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

This is the fourth and final show with our current esteemed panel.  This show will work to cover ground we’ve missed over the first three weeks, seek to take a deeper dive on particular questions, and provide an opportunity for tying up loose ends.  We’ve been using as a guide and outline for our discussions, the flow of a book which was edited by Michael J. Gorman.  It’s called “Scripture and Its Interpretation”.  Here are some questions we hoped to tackle as we entered the final show in the arc: How has the Bible been received, and what is its significance (generally speaking)? How does the Bible, and its interpretation, effect contemporary Christian existence?  (Spirituality, Ethics, Politics, Community) How then shall we live?  (Mission, embodying Pentecost, etc.) The panel: Troy Skinner.  930 WFMD Host/Moderator of The Faith Debate. Jonathan Switzer.  Past-President of Frederick’s Evangelical Ministerial Fellowship, Founder of “Frederick 48”, former candidate for School Board in Frederick County, Founder of Crossroads Valley Church, and founder of BRIDGES.
