Borg, “Jesus, the Wisdom of God”
In “Jesus, the Wisdom of God” (chapter 5 in Meeting Jesus Again for First Time) Borg treats the Sophia metaphor in more detail. You may wish to draw on that material in this session.
Christ Sophia A contemporary icon by Robert Lentz depicting the Christ as the female Sophia. Texts for a liturgy celebrating Jesus as an embodiment of divine Sophia. Texts: Prov 8:22-31 & 9:1-6; Mark 7:34-52; 1Cor 1:22-24; St Anselm of Canterbury; Julian of Norwich. Prepared by Marie Cameron.
In GThom there is a more conscious appreciation of Jesus as a teacher/revealer of divine Wisdom.
