Liturgy that Matters – Isaiah 50:4-91 – September 12, 2021

Themes: Veering from common trajectories of Christian supremacist interpretations of this passage, this issue explores the topic of suffering. Whose suffering is objectified and valorized, whose is deemed “redemptive” without consent, and whose gets centered in dominant Christian narratives? This, along with attention to white saviorism, modern prophets, and how we choose to engage in social transformation.

This week’s sermon commentaries are written by Casey Overton with liturgy by Rev. Molly Bolton.
