S2E45: Does the Bible Condone Slavery? w/ Dr. Richard Rodriguez
•
Michael Burns
Does the Bible get it wrong on one of the most fundamental and obvious issues of human dignity and freedom? Does it condone slavery? Don't miss the incredibly enlightening conversation on those questions and more with Dr. Richard Rodriguez of Florida International University, author of "An Unsealed Indictment: How American Slavery Violated the Scriptures." We will also consider how answering these questions helps us start to think about ways that Christians can engage with the world in areas of political partisanship and justice.
