    Inclusion and the Bible: Intro

    Bentley and Faith begin a new series exploring how Scripture can lead us to greater inclusion. This episode pulls together threads from many previous episodes about context, the overarching trajectory of Scripture, and the Spirit still speaks today. And it serves as an intro to why we welcome, affirm, and celebrate LGBTQ folks within our church community. BSB will dive deeper in coming weeks about specific texts and about how we understand Scripture's call to break down the barriers that divide us.

    Atonement Part 4: Love Wins

    This week, Bentley and Faith discuss Political Martyr and Moral Example theories of atonement, with a little detour into Scapegoat theory. These are often called, “Nonviolent theories of atonement,” and view the cross as humanity’s violence and injustice on full display. But in the end, love wins. The resurrection vindicates the way of love that Jesus lived. Hear these theories in more detail, and our takeaways on how nonviolent atonement can help us see God more clearly in the fullness of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection.
