SHOW NOTES
This is an honest and invigorating conversation with Dr. Peter Enns, scholar and author. Steve explores What is the Bible? How do we interpret the Bible in today’s world?
Controversial evangelical Bible scholar, popular blogger, podcast host of The Bible for Normal People, and author of The Bible Tells Me So and The Sin of Certainty, Dr. Peter Enns explains that the Bible is not an instruction manual or rule book but a powerful learning tool that nurtures our spiritual growth by refusing to provide us with easy answers but instead forces us to acquire wisdom.
Is the Bible authoritative in our daily life and world events?
What did God have in mind in offering us 66 books?
This is a conversation that will disturb some of us and challenge others. It’s time to re-think the Bible in light of the Bible becoming a weapon to beat up each other with.
