In what new ways are you invited to see Creator\u2019s story? In what ways is your understanding enhanced by the language of the First Nations Version? What might it look like to continue learning from and honoring Native communities in your own life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scripture to Study<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\">\u201cFrom Small Man (Paul), a <em>sacred<\/em> servant of the Great Spirit and a message bearer for Creator Sets Free (Jesus) the Chosen One. <em>I have been sent to strengthen<\/em> the spiritual ways of Creator\u2019s chosen ones and their understanding of the truth that guides them on this sacred path. This way of trusting and understanding rests on the hope of the life of the world to come that never fades away, full of beauty and harmony. It was long ago, before the beginning of time, that the Great Spirit, who always speaks the trust, promised this life to us. So when the time was right, the Great Spirit, who is our Sacred Deliverer, trusted me with this message and told me to make it known <em>to all who will hear.<\/em>\u201d<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>(Hebrews 1:1-3, First Nations Version)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wise Words to Consider<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnce I had a picture in my mind, this was years ago, of several pottery jugs. Some had First Nations designs on these pots, some were Celtic; some were African, Asian and other designs. Then I saw a hand pouring water into each pottery jar. It was like Creator was saying to me that he has poured some of the portions of the gifts of his grace into each ethnic group \u2014 gifts of grace that can only come to others through each ethnicity and in relationship with those ethnicities. \u2026 There are gifts that Creator has put there for the whole body of Christ, and we won\u2019t be whole or complete or mature until <em>all<\/em> those different gifts are being appreciated and brought into place;&nbsp; to the conversations, into the tables, into the theological circles and so on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Prayer to Lead You<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Creator, we are reminded by our Native brothers and sisters that faith includes mystery and that You are bigger than all of created life and everything in the world. We frequently make You small by our refusal to honor the sacredness of Your creation and our unwillingness to learn from those who are different from us. Change our bad hearts and broken ways that we may come into a flourishing community with all You have created. Amen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Practice to Begin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of us live disconnected from our own ethnic and cultural identities. Some of us have lost those ties due to pressures to assimilate, some of us have few ancestors to tell us these stories, and many of us have previously lacked curiosity about this area of our lives. Whatever situation you\u2019re in, what is a way that you can honor how God created you? What is the story of your family, and how does that impact who you are today? If you never have, consider making a visual representation of your family or some other aspect that represents your identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions to Answer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Terry talks about the tragedy of colonialism and the impacts of it, including the erasure of Native languages and customs and the ways that the reputation of Jesus was given a \u201cblack eye\u201d when Christianity was forced on Indigenous communities. The First Nations Version uses storytelling language that connects to the heart without relying on words that may be associated with this history. While culture is a beautiful expression of God\u2019s diversity, it is dangerous when cultural paradigms are passed off as the only truly biblical ones. Have you ever been on the receiving end of this conflation? How did that impact you? Have you ever insisted on culturally specific ways of religious expression, even unintentionally? What changes have you made to avoid doing that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources to Help&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ivpress.com\/first-nations-version\">First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Videos by Terry Wildman and Jesus Film Project, <a href=\"https:\/\/firstnationsversion.com\/jesus-film-project\/\">Retelling the Good Story: A Collection of Short Films for North American Native People.<\/a>A Book by Randy Woodley, <a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/books\/becoming-rooted-one-hundred-days-of-reconnecting-with-sacred-earth\/9781506471174\">Becoming Rooted: One Hundred Days of Reconnecting with Sacred Earth<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Episode Reflection Invitation to Explore Terry Wildman skillfully relates some of the uniqueness a Native perspective brings to the community of God despite the ways the Native community has been unvalued by the broader culture.
