Episode description

The Bible has been the source of much debate and conflict. For millennia, the Bible has been cited and leveraged for conquest, violence and manipulation; and yet, those same texts have been used for social justice, human rights and to build strong communities of faith, hope and love.

In today’s episode, we take some time to consider How Did We Get Here in relation to The Bible. What is the purpose of these ancient texts, and who decided what was in and what was out? How does divine inspiration work, and how should we interpret this seemingly nuanced text?
