Description
To Be Human - Part Eleven: Time After Time. Today, Mike and Tim bring back an old segment, Tim's Troubled Times!, to discuss the challenges of responding to power over within the church. We explore the use of Christian language to baptize political agendas, the rise of Christian nationalism, and the harm caused in the name of Jesus. How do we resist power over in a healthy way and advocate for life without engaging in conflict? We then step back into the book of Genesis to look at the seven day Creation story. Is it literal? What is the author doing? What would be understood by the original audience? What is lost in translation? How should we interpret it now? What is the significance of time and the number seven in Genesis? Fun Stuff. As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue. Feel free to email in questions to [email protected], and to engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram.
