A Bonus Episode in two parts: First, a conversation between Michael and Tommy Nelson about the literal, human aspect of Song of Solomon.
Second, a conversation between Michael and Dr. Philip Rykken about the perspective of Christ’s love for the church displayed in the Song of Solomon.
Both have studied and written extensively about Song of Solomon and we wanted to offer both of their expertise for this episode. We hope you enjoy these back-to-back conversations!
