Description

The Bible isn't just a collection of writings from thousands of years ago, it is often remarkably relevant to living today. For example, we can mourn the state of our divided world. Or we can find hope and sustenance as we pursue a world that is open, inclusive, just, and compassionate through the teachings of Jesus and the prophets. Listen to Rev.  Dr. David Bahr from Mission Hills United Church of Christ in San Diego make connections to scripture for living faith-fully today.
