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
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
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
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?
