About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of reading scripture in a way that reflects our true selves rather than an idealized version of ourselves.

Reading scripture for people whom we ought to be like rather than for people who are actully like us constrains it, fundamentally changed the story of God-with-us, steadfast in faithfulness. We can do better. Church on the Hill, Lenox (UCC)
