Season 2, Episode 8- Questions of Faith: Scripture

Today, Christopher Beaman and Phae Smith sit down with MPPC Associate Pastor for Children and Their Families, Lisa Hickman, to discuss a daunting topic: SCRIPTURE. What is the role of scripture in our faith? How are we supposed to interpret it, and where do we even begin? We know that scripture is the word of God, but what do we do with all the messiness? Jump into this complex topic with us, knowing that God is with us in this sacred space! To quote theologian Fredrick Buechner, “If you look at a window, you see flyspecks, dust, the crack where Junior’s Frisbee hit it. If you look through a window, you see the world beyond. Something like this is the difference between those who see the Bible as a holy bore and those who see it as the Word of God, which speaks out of the depths of an almost unimaginable past into the depths of ourselves.”
