In a few short years, the phrase "Fake News" has earned a place in dictionaries, in the national discourse, and our daily lives. But Fake News is not new. Fake News began when people first interpreted the Bible to advance their agenda. Commonly-held beliefs about what the Bible says regarding women, LGBTQ folks, slavery, immigrants, and Jews trumpets Fake News that is destroying people's lives.
What is the best way to counter Fake News? With the truth. So today, we'll chat with Elizabeth Geitz about her new book, Spiritual Truth in the Age of Fake News, that sets the record straight on what the Bible really says regarding sexism, racism, anti-Semitism, and heterosexism. It is time for the Fake News about the Bible to come to a screeching halt.
