The Bible is a book of freedom. This holy book has a sordid past of being misinterpreted, misused as a device for oppression, and taken so far out of its context that it can be hardly recognizable for the brilliant thing that it is - a powerful tool of liberation.

By focusing on these elements, we will be able to see the true liberative nature of these stories, and hear the call of God in scripture to embrace our culture, speak truth to power, and stand up to the systems that oppress us.
