Print ($24.99) eBook ($9.99)
Journey through the liturgical year with a reading for each Sunday and the myriad holy-days (e.g. Good Friday, Ascension Day, Pentecost, etc.), delving into the profound, comical, bizarre, and sobering moments of the Bible.
The Revised Uncommon Lectionary doesn't mince words about the Bible's thoughts on “wet dreams (Deuteronomy 23:10),” “Pulling out of your sister-in-law (Genesis 38:8-9),” or “The Bible's odd silence about Necrophilia.” It doesn’t dance around the genocide that dominates so much the Holy Book, like “God holding your enemies’ heads under the water until the bubbles stop (Exodus 15:1-12; 19),” or “A pair of she bears mauling a class of kindergartners (2 Kings 2:23-25).” It doesn’t look away from “Miriam cursed for being racist (Numbers 12)” or “Bread freshly baked with human dung (Ezekiel 4:12).” It was composed with the belief that a “good Christian” doesn’t romanticize or ignore the uncomfortable parts of the Bible. A “good Christian” meets the challenge head on. Click here to listen to a podcast where we talk about our lectionary and other church related nerdity.
