Halakah, Hata, T'Shuva (Law, Sin, Repent) are Hebrew words found throughout the Bible that shape how we believe and the way in which we believe. In this episode, we take a deeper dive into how these terms could be translated and how that translation can impact how we navigate relationship with God, others, ourselves, and all of creation.

As a bonus, we also talk about two Greek words for sin and repent as well!
In this episode, we reference the work of Bryan Stevenson. The work of Brene Brown is not specifically mentioned, but her work on identity is highly influential. Below are Ted Talks that  explore their ideas more fully.
Bryan Stevenson: "We need to talk about injustice"
Brene Brown: "Listening to shame"
