In the second week of our series "Grappling with God: Untangling Tough Scriptures," Mitchell took on the topic of violence, specifically genocide as found in 1 Samuel 15:1-3. It is actually genocide+ as God appears to command utter destruction of not only the people, but also the animals. What are we to do with such a text? You might be surprised by Mitchell's answer.
