Natives Follow Jesus

Myth & Misconceptions: Indian Casinos Make All Indians Rich


Listen Later

SHOW NOTES:

I believe Natives who Follow Jesus can “speak the truth in love” when it comes to history in the Americas and Christianity today. In four episodes I will be talking about Myths of Native America and Misconceptions of Christianity.  Since I live in both worlds as a Navajo who is a Christian, I believe that I can add unique insight and perspective to the myths and misconceptions that I have chosen.

So let me briefly address my take on a myth of Native America and a misconception of Christianity in today’s episode: 

  • Indian Casinos Make All Indians Rich?
  • Christianity is no fun, it's all legalistic!
