This episode walks through the Genesis story of Sodom and why the city is described as extremely wicked. You will hear how Lot reacts when two angels arrive, why he insists they come inside, and what happens when the men of the city surround his door. The conversation explains that the corruption is portrayed as widespread, not just “a few bad apples.” It also discusses how the “sin of Sodom” is described as selfishness, lack of hospitality, greed, and unchecked appetite, including sexual violence. Take time to examine where self-centered habits might be shaping your choices, and ask God to form a heart of hospitality and integrity.
