Adultery + Lust (opens the original)
Read excerpt
They told us Jesus said sexual desire was dirty. Don't lust. Don't touch yourself. Don't look. Don't think about it. And women? Cover up so you don't cause men to stumble. But what if we got this passage completely backward? Jesus isn't teaching us to fear our sexuality. He's teaching us how to take responsibility for its power. Follow us on social media!

Murder + Anger (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus said if you're angry, you're liable to judgment. If you call someone a fool, you're in danger of hell. What do we do with that? In Part 11 of Unlearning Empire, we talk about anger, dehumanization, reconciliation, and how these words of Jesus have been used to silence the very people who have every right to be angry.

Abolish or Fulfill? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In Part 10 of Unlearning Empire, we explore biblical authority, interpretation, and why the point may not be to simply quote the words but to become them. Follow us on social media!

Salt + Light (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus didn't call the powerful the salt and light of the world. He gave those names to the people the empire overlooks. What if changing the world has less to do with gaining power and more to do with preserving what is good and revealing another way to be human? Follow us on social media!

Blessed Are the Persecuted (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if what American Christianity calls persecution is actually the loss of privilege? In Part 8 of Unlearning Empire, we explore Jesus' final Beatitude and why justice, mercy, peace, and truth inevitably collide with empire. Persecution was never Christianity's greatest threat. Power was. Follow us on social media! Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/viningslake Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/viningslake TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@viningslake
