Gilded Cage: Genesis 19 and the Sins of Sodom and Gomorrah Feels and Flowers

- Kristendom
You rarely see people contort themselves pretzel-like as they do when they try to make scripture--and God--more palatable to modern-day sensitivities as when they talk about Sodom and Gomorrah. Trust me--I’ve listened to a bunch of podcasts and sermons on this subject from both sides of the spectrum.
The truth is, this is not a pretty story. But we can’t skip it, either. So let's talk about this, let’s talk about that time when God rained fire down on the wicked cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. What were these people’s sins--sins so grievous that God wiped it out from the map by raining down fire from heaven.
And why is it so important that we understand this story?
