How to Handle the Bible when Endorsing Marriage Equality: Come Glean Key Nuggets from Biblical Scholar and Award-Winning Educator Dr Bird!
Time: Fri 3:00PM
Venue: Workshop
Style: Presentation
Content Type: Critical thinking meets reading the Bible
Description: Pulling from her latest publication, _Marriage in the Bible: What DO the Texts SAY?_ Dr Bird will share key points about the passages that people use to define \biblical marriage,\ in order to be able to have a more complex understanding of what those passages mean in context. Then she will share highlights from other passages related to marriage that perhaps ought to be in the mix as well. Understanding what \the Bible says\ on this subject is an important starting point for deciding how to use it in our current religious and political conversations.
