Religion far too often is a tool of oppression. People in power often uses biblical texts to justify their oppression. We explore one of these texts in 1 Peter and see that the text was originally meant for liberation. Then we explore how we can hear the text today in a way that calls us to work for justice in our every day lives.
Why do we feel awkward? And when we feel awkward, what, exactly, are we feeling? In this series, we’re going to explore some of the most awkward stories in the Bible. Because awkwardness has a surprising spiritual promise – we can discover sins that were hidden to us, but known to God. If we’re willing to let God make it awkward, we can find hope and healing!
