E13: Divorce law and protecting the vulnerable | Untangled

Description

In today's episode, we examine a debate about divorce and an attempt to manipulate Jesus into taking a side. Instead of being captured by their game, Jesus promotes a third way and highlights the importance of relationships. Joan and Damian discuss how to connect with this relationship with God. Jesus invites us to be childlike as we approach the mystery of connectivity with God. It's not cleaverness, it's through awe, wonder, release of control and sharing resources that Jesus says we get closer to God. Jesus gets annoyed with his disciples about arguing about status, instead we hear stories about Jesus call to share love and mercy.

About Untangled

This is a podcast for the Bible curious.

Each week Joan will give Damian a passage to read from the bible and they’ll just talk about it.

At their heart, religions promote connection, each offering a unique path toward unity in life in God.

Here’s a place to untangle stories from the Christian Scripture.

Joan and Damian grew up next door to each other in Melbourne’s inner north. 50 years later, they are still great mates and like to chat about all things deep and meaningful.

Joan has read the bible loads of times. She grew up on bible stories, became a church minister, learned from biblical scholars, read books, writes sermons and has been immersed in theological reflections for years.

Damian has never read the bible. He ran an IT business and has been highly suspicious of religion. After a mid-life direction change, Damian retrained as a psychodynamic psychotherapist.
