Dr. Emmanuel Y. Lartey

WHO IS THIS? Encountering God in Other People and Traditions

Dr. Emmanuel Lartey
8:30 am, Sunday, April 30, 2017

The disciples on the Emmaus Road did not recognize their Master and Friend. God is often hidden from us when we meet someone of a different culture, class, race, or religious tradition. Chaplains encounter people of diverse traditions and cultures on a regular basis, often in existential exigencies of pain and suffering. How may these meetings become places from which we all, including those we encounter, leave with hearts burning?
