A significant number of the assigned biblical texts for these summer months are about
inclusivity. Of course, the Pentecost Sunday theme of May 27 (especially the first lesson
from Acts 2:1-21) affirms that differences in ethnicity do not get in the way of the unity
of God's people. The same theme is just as evident in the second lesson for June 24
(Galatians 3:23-29), as Paul proclaims that in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave
nor free, male nor female.
