NOTES AND COMMENTARY Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20-21 With Nicole Cox John 17:20-26 Jesus prays for his disciples Acts 16:16-34 Paul and Silas arrested Psalm 97 with Richard Bruxvoort Colligan VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS: Nicole Cox Youtube Channel PSALMIST IN THE FIELD: Richard Bruxvoort Colligan Psalmimmersion.com @pomopsalmist Patreon SUMMARY In this episode, the Gospel of John lingers a little longer in Maundy Thursday. On the eve of Pentecost, we share part of Jesus' prayer from the eve of his crucifixion. His prayer for unity is important to remember, but at what cost? What kind of unity is Jesus praying for? The text from Acts is long, but an interesting story of liberation and captivity. Paul and Silas are arrested for upsetting the cultural and economic status quo. But what about the status quo for the slave girl? How is the jailer liberated? Plus, Nicole Cox has a sorrowful comment on the end of Revelation and Richard BC brings is creativity to Psalm 97/
