    Dr. Gafney, Is it possible to get a transcript of this sermon? I am attempting to teach my congregation new ways of reading and interpreting the sacred text. This sermon is a prime example of what I’ve been preaching and teaching to a fairly conservative but open congregation. God bless you and your continued scholarship.
