Christian Conversations: Misinformation in modern society illustrated through the use/abuse of Scripture

Misinformation is false or inaccurate information, that is, getting the facts wrong. Disinformation is false information which is deliberate – an intentional misstating of facts.

Are we shocked to learn that there is mis/disinformation in the Bible – a human construct? 

In this lecture, Rev. Sandy will explore scriptural elements from the prophets, considering interpretation and misinformation associated with power and wealth. He may also address the intent of the “priestly accounts”, as well as the intent of the birth and passion narratives found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke.  In each case, Sandy will address key questions, including: 

• Who benefits? 

• What’s the agenda? 

• Who are the writers targeting?
