Slavery and the Goodness of God

Exodus 21:1-11 | JD Summers

At first blush, some parts of Scripture can cause us to question God's goodness. But it is often these passages that truly reveal the depths of his goodness, as well as his love and justice. As we take a closer look into God's instructions to Israel about slavery, we see God's protective hand and his concern for the defenseless in the community, as well as being reminded of the transformation that has occurred in the lives of believers to transform us into slaves of Christ.
