Bible in Perspective: An Eight-Part Series on the Cobber Texts

For decades seven passages from the Bible have been used to harass, intimidate, and oppress the LGBTQIA+ community. But they are always taken out of context. Please join us as we put these passages back into their original language and context. You may be surprised what a message of inclusion and hope they actually contain for all of God’s children.

Monday nights at 6 PM, September 16 – November 4, 2024

Please register here

You can join us in person at West Hollywood United Church of Christ, 7350 Sunset Blvd. Bring a brown bag dinner to eat while we learn!

Or Join us via Zoom – pre-registration is required

September 16 Biblical Authority

2 Timothy 3:16-7

 

How much authority does the Bible hold, and where does it come from? Is it the actual word of God, just inspired, or something else?

September 23 Sodom and Gomorrah

Genesis 19

 

Why was Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed? Why would God condone such horrible treatment of women? Was homosexuality really the cause?

September 30 Abomination and the Death Penalty

Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13

 

“If a man lays with another man…” is so often quoted, but do you know what comes before it? What comes after? What does abomination mean, anyway?
