At the Truth and Democracy Coalition, we recognize the enduring power of scripture to inspire people, challenge injustice, and change the world. Modern Lectionaries offers historically grounded insights into the Sunday Bible readings from the Revised Common Lectionary. The Revised Common Lectionary is used by Mainline Protestants and Catholics to tell them what scripture passages to read, teach, and preach on holy days. Through historically informed exegesis and thoughtful analysis, Modern Lectionaries provides clergy, ministers, and faith communities with meaningful reflections that connect scripture to the pressing issues of our time.

Modern Lectionaries offers fresh interpretations that respect ancient social and historical contexts to offer politically and culturally relevant analyses of social issues. This program is more than a theological exercise—it is an invitation to engage deeply with scripture, drawing wisdom from ancient texts to address modern-day concerns with a heart for the poor and a commitment to justice.
