Content Warning: Sexual assault, violence
Power, betrayal, and justice collide as David’s reign looks like it’s unraveling, and as he grasps for allies, we see just how far some will go to keep what they believe to be theirs.
Join us to explore how systems of power perpetuate cycles of harm — as in the case of Mephibosheth and the women left behind — and how empires shape the people within them (intentionally and unintentionally).
And how do the teachings of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount offer us an alternative pattern to follow?
