Our Lenten theme, Full to the Brim, is an invitation—into a radically different Lent, into a full life. It’s an invitation to be authentically who you are, to counter scarcity and injustice at every turn, to pour out even more grace wherever it is needed. And so, this Lent, let us trust—fully—that we belong to God. Let us increase our capacity to receive and give grace. Let us discover the expansive life God dreams for us.

In 1807 a group of clergy and plantation owners published a deeply edited version of the Bible for use with enslaved people. This "Slave Bible" was carefully crafted to eliminate any hope of liberation. Even so, they could not keep down the good news of freedom in Christ.

In honor of Black History Month, we'll explore the structure of the Slave Bible and its failure to hide the message of liberation as we examine the way faith is a driving force for freeing oppressed people.

My deepest gratitude to my friend and colleague Rev. Dr. Leroy Barber for his study of and sermons on the Slave Bible which inspired this series and which he gave me permission to pursue.

Each week, click here for the Facebook livestream and link to the worship bulletin. Click here for the YouTube channel. Click here for a comparison chart between the full text of the Bible and the chapters that were contained in the "Slave Bible."
