An opportunity to fellowship and dialogue together on some of the most theologically challenging topics.
How do we make sense of divine violence in the Old Testament?
Many of us wrestle with the stories in the Old Testament where God seems to enact or command violence upon people. Stories like Noah and the Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah, and the conquest of Canaan. How do we as people who believe that God is good and that every word of the Bible is divinely inspired make sense of these stories? This talk will seek to answer this question while also equipping you to think deeply about what the Bible really says rather than falling into common misconceptions and caricatures of the Old Testament.
