“…if we gather around a static God of order who only guards the interests of the “haves,” oppression cannot be far behind. Conversely, if a God is disclosed who is free to come and go, free from and even against the regime, free to hear and even answer slave cries, free from all proper goodness as defined by the empire, then it will bear decisively upon sociology because the freedom God will surface in the brickyards and manifest itself as justice and compassion.”

For People with Bishop Rob Wright

The podcast expands on Bishop’s For Faith devotional, drawing inspiration from the life of Jesus to answer 21st-century questions.

Libre

“…si nos reunimos alrededor de un dios estático que solo guarda los intereses de los “que tienen”, la opresión no puede estar muy atrás. Por el contrario, si se revela un Dios que es libre de ir y venir, libre de e incluso en contra del régimen, libre de escuchar e incluso responder gritos de esclavos, libre de toda bondad propia según lo definido por el imperio, Entonces tendrá un peso decisivo sobre la sociología porque la libertad que Dios aflorará en los albañiles y se manifestará como justicia y compasión.”
