Midweek Podcast | "This was my perception, can you help me?"
We’re back this week with Pastor Brandon from Midtown Lexington as we pull the curtain back and talk more about this week’s sermon.
Full quote referenced in the podcast:
“Historians will record that in the early decades of the twenty-first century we became an unforgiving society, a society of furies, a society in search of guilt and shame, a society of sanctimonies and “struggle sessions” American-style. They will admire our awakening to prejudice but lament the sometimes prejudicial ways in which we acted on our progressive realizations. In this respect America should become more Christian. (There, I said it.) For all our elaborate culture of self-knowledge, for all the hectoring articulateness of our identity vocabularies, we are still, each of us, our own blind spots. We should welcome every person we meet as a small blow against blindness.”
- “Steadying” by Leon Wieseltier in Liberties
