This week we discuss (argue) what it means to say the Bible is God's Word. Is the Bible completely flawless, without errors? Is it simply a collection of nice words by nice people? Or is it it something in between? The book "Flexible Faith" by Bonnie Kristian, helps fuel today's episode of Bros, Bibles & Beer! https://www.facebook.com/brosbiblesbeer https://twitter.com/brosbiblesbeer https://www.brosbiblesbeer.com Instagram: @brosbiblesbeer Email: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com Bros Bibles & B...

In this episode we look into the scandals surrounding the life of apologist, Ravi Zacharias, and ask some hard questions. How are we as Christians to respond when the people we held so highly fall so low? Does it invalidate the good they did? Does it cheapen then truth they taught? We end the episode with a personal story from Andy about singer/songwriter David Bazan, which leaves us wondering if one should ever meet their heroes?
