PART 4 of 4: Many Christians wonder how it is possible to be LGBTQ+ affirming in light of what most people assume to be a clear anti-Gay message in the bible. This episode summarizes all the verses we've studied so far, and weighs them against the larger backdrop of the Biblical principles of Love, Grace, and how we are called to treat others. Love doesn't necessarily mean accepting everything others do, and all though under the law of love, everything is permitted, not everything is beneficial--but love also desires more than just compelling others to do good. It desires their THRIVING.

Judgment is part of how humans have survived for centuries, but it's also a source of tribalism and disconnection. Today, Colby Martin shares an epiphany that changed the way he views God, and he uses the creation story in Genesis to demonstrate how judging others hurts us and the people around us. Colby is a pastor and author of two books, “UnClobber” and “The Shift.” Episode Recap: Humans are by nature mistrustful of people who are different, and we've crafted stories to explain it (6:35) Tribalism is based on judgment (10:39) In the creation story, God wanted to protect us from knowledge of good and evil (12:58) It's not that Adam and Eve became evil, but they started seeing each other as different (17:52) Judging leads to shame (22:40) Love does not judge, so maybe God doesn't judge either (24:43) Judging is coded into our DNA, but so is the image of God (29:46) God's judgment of our identity is that we are beloved (34:18) Resources: Learn more about GracePointe Check out our schedule of upcoming events Follow GracePointe on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook Check out Colby's books

The Bible doesn't condemn homosexuality, DOES NOT, DOES NOT, DOES NOT. The bible actually preaches, start with love, and live each day from the point of love and all will be well with the world. However, for whatever reasons, religions, not all, but many have chosen to use the bible as a weapon to clobber the LGBTQ+ community. But one former Evangelical Pastor has said, there's another way. Author, Colby Martin, in his book Unclobber, literally unclobbers the Bible passages that have created pain and disillusionment LGBTQ+, all at the cost of his own space in the evangelical world. And he couldn't be happier as an amazing supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. Dive in and learn how you too can unclobber these Bible passages and know you are good in the eyes of God. https://www.colbymartinonline.com/books ()About Colby Having experienced his fair share of pain and rejection from mainstream Christianity, Colby is awake to the flaws, tragic missteps, and misplaced earnestness that too often define the direction of the church. But God's vision for creation as revealed in Jesus still compels him - a window into a way of being human that fosters wholeness, and can move communities away from shame into vulnerable, flourishing connection. As author of “https://www.amazon.com/UnClobber-Rethinking-Misuse-Bible-Homosexuality/dp/066426221X (UnClobber): Rethinking our Misuse of the Bible on Homosexuality” and the soon to be released, “https://www.amazon.com/Shift-Surviving-Conservative-Progressive-Christianity/dp/1506455492/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=The%20shift%20colby%20martin&qid=1574106514&sr=8-1 (The Shift): Surviving and Thriving after Moving from Conservative to Progressive Christianity,” Colby has emerged as one of the leading voices of the Progressive Christian movement. Together with his Co-Pastor and wife, http://www.katechristensenmartin.com/ (Kate), they founded and lead http://sojourngrace.com/ (Sojourn Grace Collective) in San Diego, CA, while enjoying life with their four sons. Colby is passionate about carving out a space within Christianity that includes: a whole-heartedly affirming posture toward LGBTQ individuals, a broader acceptance of other spiritual practices and religious perspectives, an agreeableness toward science, and a commitment to always growing, transforming, and trusting that the best days are yet to come. Colby is currently partnering with other progressive Christian churches as a co-director for https://www.launchpadpartners.org/ (Launchpad Partners Inc), an organization committed to planting and resourcing similar faith communities all across the country. It is Colby's deeply held belief that when people are reminded they are loved children of God, wholly and exactly as they are, they begin to live from a place of freedom. His work as author and pastor aims to point us toward that freedom, stubbornly, hopefully, until we believe in it. Until we can live in it, that the church - fully loved, liberated, and empowered - may continue the long work of changing the world.

In this episode, I break down the youtube video of Progressive Christian YouTuber and pastor, Colby Martin. He argues that since the Bible is a "translation of a translation of a translation," we cannot know for sure what the original author's message really was in the biblical text. He also claims that since there are so many "contradictions" in the Bible, it cannot be trusted. Another assertion he makes is that since one Greek word often can be translated in different ways, that it is nearly impossible to know for sure how it is to be translated. This low and skeptical view of Scripture is common to those submerged in Progressive Christianity, a virus of the Faith that is taking hold of many believers who are more liberal in temperament and politics. Tune in for a discussion of how we know we can trust the message of God's Word, and how we can hold various translations accountable to their accuracy in representing the original manuscripts. #ProgressiveChristianity #ProgressiveChristian #ColbyMartin #Unclobber #Bible #BibleTranslations #InterpretingScripture #SolaScriptura --------------------------------LINKS--------------------------------- Listen to The Science Faith & Reasoning podcast anywhere podcasts are listened to.

Colby Martin bravely answers hard questions that the Christian church avoids like the mosaic plague or worse, aggressively responds to with clobber verses meant to undermine the identities of the LGBTQIA+ community: Can one be a true Christian and actually believe that being queer is NOT a sin?  Having experienced his fair share of pain and rejection from mainstream Christianity, Colby is awake to the flaws, tragic missteps, and misplaced earnestness that too often define the direction of the church.

This week I spoke to Colby Martin of the SEMA Action Network to get all of the nitty gritty details on the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act. The news of the act finally being able to move forward after 7 long years of it becoming law has been huge! Specifically, it now means that a licensed replica vehicle manufacturer can build up to 325 replica "classic" cars per year! Unlike current replica and "kit" cars, the customer can purchase it fully completed (running/driving) and register it in their own state accordingly. It'll look and feel just like the original, but there is one catch; it has to be emissions compliant with "modern standards!" Clear as mud, right? Colby was here to sort out the minutia of it all.  The post TMCP #501 Colby Martin – SEMA Low Volume Vehicle Act, What Is It All about first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.
