The world is not the place you think it is. Your world has been carefully curated to present a certain story that has a lot to do with how life turns out for different people. Whether you’ve been aware of it or not, you have been advantaged or disadvantaged by that story. That isn’t the world Jesus told stories about nor that stands behind the unrealized dream of “All people are created equal.” This first of our six-week odyssey of listening to more stories from more voices; starts with your own.
