## Resource

Co-hosts Dave Lester and Mike Mason are joined again by Kayla Jentes to walk through the Sodom and Gomorrah Bible passage. The trio only made it 11 verses before they decided they needed to do a part 1 and part 2. The initial episode discusses the strangers who approach Lot at the gate of Sodom and Lot's invitation for the 2 strangers to come back to his house where he practices radical hospitality. We talk about the raging mob that shows up at Lot's house wanting to assault the 2 strangers. Ultimately, we talk about how Sodom and Gomorrah is a misunderstood account that distracts us from what seems like the deeper meaning of the passage.
