We live in a time of division and conflict.

It is perfect timing then, that our topic this week comes from Galatians 3 and says, “In Christ, there is neither male nor female, slave nor free, Jew nor Gentile … all are one.”

Usually when this topic comes up people want to focus on how Christ’s love “bridges” the divides between us.

I want to take it a step further! I want to look at how:

A) we are bound up in those categories of sex, religion, and politics

B) Christ’s love ruptures those categories and un-binds us from them

The love of God doesn’t just bridge the divisions among us – it binds us together in love and undermines the very categories themselves.

God’s love calls into question the human categories of:

  • Gender
  • Sexual Orientation
  • Religion
  • Politics

Love UnBound doesn’t just help us bridge the difference between us – it unbinds us to see the other in such a different way that our categories themselves are called into question.

Here is a short video – let me know what you think …
