Scripture from the Margins

Scripture from the Margins

The Bible shows us again and again that God is on the side of the poor and the oppressed. People on the margins.

The Bible shows us again and again that God is on the side of the poor and the oppressed. People on the margins. But too often, when we read scripture in our churches, we focus on other aspects of the story, or we are so familiar with the text that we don’t notice the challenging things it has to say to us. Scripture from the Margins is a series of Bible studies that encourage people to focus on the voices and perspectives in scripture that we don’t usually hear in our churches. They can be used for individual reflection, or in house groups and Bible study groups. They make great Lent programmes. http://www.church-poverty.org.uk/dangerousstories/
