In this podcast episode, we read Genesis 19:1-5 from the Common English Bible, and Genesis 19:6-13 from the Good New Translation. Once again, we identify and correct androcentric language found in the English Standard Version (ESV). In this passage, we see God's response to ongoing sexual violence. We also learn that trusting in human strength does not lead to a positive outcome. Speaking to the New Testament church, the apostle Paul warns against depending on human leaders, rather than on Jesus Christ. Today, the church must turn aside from trusting in "male leadership," and depend instead upon God's Holy Spirit for strength and guidance.
