How Reading the Bible Can Go Wrong - The Justification of Slavery with Scripture

In this episode, we slow down and sit with the story of Hagar in Genesis 16, a story many of us have read, but few of us have truly wrestled with. Throughout history, passages like this have been read in ways that justified harm, even slavery. So how does that happen, and what does it reveal about the way we approach Scripture? We explore the tension between reading the Bible literally and reading it through the spirit of Christ. This conversation challenges us to examine our biases, question inherited interpretations, and ask whether our understanding of Scripture truly reflects the heart of Jesus. Sometimes the danger is not in the story itself, but in how we choose to read it.
