talks on inclusion

Join the TU Wesley in a safe and affirming space as we explore the “Clobber Passages” — biblical texts often used to marginalize LGBTQ+ people.

In this series, we’ll approach these passages with a fresh perspective, seeking to reclaim them through inclusive, thoughtful discussion. Together, we’ll challenge harmful interpretations and discover new ways to engage with these scriptures.

1/28 - The Sin of Sodom
2/4 - Leviticus and Deuteronomy
2/11 - New Testament Texts
2/25 - An Ethic of Inclusion
