  • Mary, Martha and Gender Equality
    Jul 17 2025
    Luke 10:38-42 The Bible and gender equality is a subject of ongoing theological debate within many Christian communities. This debate draws passionate voices from both complementarian and egalitarian perspectives. Egalitarianism holds that men and women are created equal in worth, dignity, and capacity, and that their equality should extend into all areas of life—including leadership roles in the church, home, and society. When read through an egalitarian lens, the Gospels can offer a strong foundation for gender equality. It is also just as true that the Bible has historically been used to support patriarchal systems. What we must ask ourselves in our contexts today is whether a passage or an interpretation of a passage is life-giving? We must ask who is it hurting? Is it moving us closer to a world that is a safe, compassionate, just home for everyone, even those different from ourselves, or away from one?For more go to renewedheartministries.com

  • Who Is My Neighbor
    Jul 10 2025
    Luke 10:25-37 “Ultimately, seeing others as neighbors is a choice. It is a spiritual and ethical discipline that transforms how we relate to those with whom we share our world. It invites us into a larger story, one in which love transgresses human-made boundaries, dignity is upheld, and justice and peace become possible. If we are to build a future that honors every human being, we must begin by looking at the person beside us, no matter how different, and saying, “You are my neighbor.”For more go to renewedheartministries.com

  • Dependency and the Community of Justice
    Jul 3 2025
    Luke 10:1-11, 16-20 “This passage reminds us today to focus on justice work here and now. Not to focus on supernatural realms, but on our own present reality. Luke’s Jesus anchors his disciples’ joy in something much deeper than what’s unseen: their belonging to the beloved community of love, compassion, and justice rather than having their names written in the books of Rome. It’s a call to keep our focus on what the reign of God means for our concrete material lives in matters of justice and compassion and in making our world a safer home for everyone. Justice creates a much larger community than ancient Rome or any nation or religion today. And when we work to make our world a more just home, we are part of this community—now and forever.”For more go to renewedheartministries.com
