Reading from Genesis 34:1-31 (NLT) ~ Revenge against Shechem ~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. The picture of everyone doing what they think is best next results in creating more sin and death. The entitled prince living as though there are no consequences, waiting for God when you are wronged. The escalating cycle of violence that occurs when we think we’ve been wronged. We are called to be like Christ, with a dying to self, sort of forgiveness.
