Resourcing Faith: Ezekiel and Divine Presence*

  • Little St Mary's Trumpington Street Cambridge, CB2 1QG United Kingdom (map)

*N.B. This event has been rescheduled to Saturday 1 July from Saturday 24 June.

Olga Fabrikant-Burke leads a study of the Book of Ezekiel, exploring the themes of divine presence and absence.

Where is God? Divine Presence and Absence in Ezekiel

Where is God? We live in an increasingly insecure world. Life grows ever more precarious and unpredictable. Ezekiel may be no one’s favourite prophet, but he took human suffering seriously. For Ezekiel, God is found in surprising places: in the depths of suffering and defeat, in contradiction to expectation, in the dispersion and desperation of exile, and even in destruction and death. As we ponder Ezekiel’s message of hope and renewal, we will encounter a God who goes into the darkest places to meet us.

Olga Fabrikant-Burke is Tutor in Old Testament, and Admissions Tutor, at Ridley Hall, Cambridge, as well as being Assistant Curate at St Bene’t’s. She holds a doctorate in Old Testament studies from the University of Cambridge and is passionate about helping people come to know and delight in the riches of the Old Testament.

Coffee will be available from 10am.
