Christian Scripture is filled with language of power and surrender: masters and servants, obedience and ownership, devotion and submission. For those of us who live within leather traditions, this language can feel surprisingly familiar. Yet the same verses that might resonate with us today have also been used throughout history to justify harm, erase consent, and uphold systems of domination.
In this study, we’ll look closely at these passages, not to avoid their tension but to enter it. Together, we’ll explore the scriptures we’ve often heard and ask what they might mean for us now, as people seeking to live with integrity, intention, and heart within our D/s, M/s, and kink-informed relationships.
Through open conversation and sacred curiosity, we’ll uncover the “good stuff,” the radical, reverent, and sometimes red-hot truths about power, surrender, and connection that emerge when ancient words meet the leather lives we actually live.
