TWIR 5.7.17 Peter's Betrayal: Shepherd or Thief?

"So here’s my question. If Jesus is the gate, If having life abundantly is the gate For anyone and everyone inside the sheepfold …and there’s no reason to believe he doesn’t mean Anyone and everyone as in ALL of us, Then is the letter of 1st Peter a good shepherd? Or is it a thief and a bandit trying to climb over the back fence?" That's the question that bugs me on this week's edition of "The Word Is Resistance," as I sat with the lectionary texts: • Acts 2:42-47 • Psalm 23 • 1 Peter 2:19-25 • John 10:1-10 As always we offer a couple of practices for you in response to the texts.. As always, resources, references, and copyright/permissions info can be found in the transcript, which can be found here: http://www.showingupforracialjustice.org/the-word-is-resistance.html
