This week's episode is about messengers of God, the human and angelic variety, and how prophets or messengers are still very much a part of how God works in the world today. I hope these resources will help you explore this topic in a deeper way on your own.

6. Journal prompts: when might I have encountered a messenger from God in my lifetime? What happened? How did it make me feel? How did that encounter change my path or my thinking?
7. This video from BibleProject explaining part of the Book of Isaiah does a good job of explaining the work and role of a prophet in the Old Testament - Isaiah gives judgment, predicts trouble, and gives clarity, hope and a path. He speaks for God to religious leaders/community who have gone astray.
