Characterized by Biblical stories and historical and contemporary examples where every need is provided for, such as the garden of Eden, manna in the wilderness, the practice of Jubilee, and early Christian communities, this theme describes the anti-poverty programs that run throughout the Bible. The season of “Jubilee” begins with and parallels the season of Pentecost, when God’s Spirit was poured out on a multiracial movement of Jesus followers, as well as the season just after, often known as Ordinary time. These Biblical narratives provide not only the moral justification that everybody has a right to live, but also demonstrate concretely how that reality can be achieved, and underscore the idea that such practices should be ordinary in our lives and world.
Join our liturgist, Rev. Dr. Letiah Fraser, Freedom Church of the Poor, and Amanda Leach and Rev. Chad Collins tonight.
