Speaker: Bill Gorman, BillG@cckc.church
In a shattered world, Yahweh's instructions reveal his character.
– The ever-changing nature of culture
…a woman's identity in Israel—and her link to its economy and civil structures—was always tracked through the men in her life. She was first her father's daughter, then her husband's wife and then her son's mother. The resources and protection of the clan came to her through the male members of her family. This is why it was critical for a woman to marry and to bear children… And a woman without father, husband or son was destitute; without the charity of strangers, she would starve. ~ Sandra Richter, The Epic of Eden: A Christian Entry into the Old Testament
Even if Christianity did not overthrow slavery immediately … Paul’s injunction to treat slaves rightly and fairly would soon be understood as a command to abolish the institution of slavery entirely. ~ Tom Holland, Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World
– Yahweh’s unchanging character
The only way forward is to make peace with proximate justice. It is a choice to make peace with something, something that is honest and true, something that is more just and more merciful, even if it is not everything. All-or-nothing never works–in marriages, in friendships, in the workplace, in the church. And it never works in politics. ~ Steve Garber, Proximate Justice, Again and Again
– Timeless wisdom for our lives
