b'The Church, where faith should thrive, too often kills \\u2014 sometimes spiritually, sometimes literally \\u2014 the very people working to keep the faith. LGBTQ, women, young people, people of color and others know this well. In this week\\u2019s episode, we explore Jesus\\u2019s thoughts on the relationship between prophets and religious centers.\\nReferenced in this episode:\\n\\nRift in the United Methodist Church\\nthe politics of Jesus\\n\\nLuke 13:31-35\\nAt that time, some Pharisees approached Jesus and said, \\u201cGo! Get away from here, because Herod wants to kill you.\\nJesus said to them,\\xa0\\u201cGo, tell that fox, \\u2018Look, I\\u2019m throwing out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will complete my work. However, it\\u2019s necessary for me to travel today, tomorrow, and the next day because it\\u2019s impossible for a prophet to be killed outside of Jerusalem.\\u2019\\n\\u201cJerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who were sent to you! How often I have wanted to gather your people just as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings. But you didn\\u2019t want that.\\xa0Look, your house is abandoned. I tell you, you won\\u2019t see me until the time comes when you say,\\xa0Blessings on the one who comes in the Lord\\u2019s name.\\u201d\\nPhoto by\\xa0Gift Habeshaw\\nThe post Prophets in our midst \\u2013 Luke 13:31-35 appeared first on Queer Theology.'
