Psalm 22: Jesus, David, and You

Dr. Rick Asche was the guest on this episode of the Chapter House, a long-form podcast from the ministry of Epiclesis. Rick took a close look at the "disorientation" of Psalm 22, as theologian Walter Brueggemann calls it, and showed how a plaintive cry of David could also speak for Jesus and also for us. We know that Jesus identified with these words on the cross, but we, too, can embrace the hope that comes in a journey from disorientation to surprising, new orientation.
