The Bible has been hijacked. Weaponized by right-wing ideologues and twisted by capitalist apologists, scripture is routinely used to justify white supremacy, misogyny, economic disparity, genocide, and environmental destruction. Sadly, many Christians have simply ceded scriptural authority to the loudest, most polarizing voices.
But what if the stories we think we know actually preach the exact opposite?
Join renowned biblical animator Ched Myers for a transformative, free webinar that refuses to surrender the text. Join us on Thursday, July 23, 2026, from 7:00-8:30pm ET to hear Ched perform a literary and historical “core sample” on one of the most misused stories in the New Testament: Luke’s Parable of the Ten Pounds. You’ll discover how the standard capitalist interpretation completely falls apart under scrutiny and how “re-storying” this text unlocks a radical blueprint for resisting plutocracy — a critical skill for the current moment. If you are ready for a liberating re-telling of this well-known tale and an invitation to the costly discipleship of non-cooperation with oppressive systems, register today!
This 90-minute webinar is free, but registration is required.
