Today we look at a very famous scripture where Paul says “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” What does that really mean ? Is it a political statement ? Does it mean there are no real differences between us ? In our polarized cultural moment, is there hope to be found here ? We believe this amazing piece of scripture when understood in context holds both a great challenge and a great promise. Or as our longest sermon title ever puts it: ""That condescending sense of superiority - dies right here... and The joy-full gift of freedom and honor – is born right here.”
