We are back!  Our season 3 part 2 premiere’s with a podcast favorite guest, Pastor Allison.  She and Pastor A.J. discuss light and dark and the problem with some of this language in the Bible. Do you get uncomfortable with light and dark imagery in the Bible? No? Well let’s open ourselves up to other perspectives of why this language is harmful and who it harms. Pastor Allison and Pastor A.J. will explore other ways to express these images.  We will talk about 1 John 1:1--2:2 for Sunday, April 7, 2024.
