Part one of a new series on interpreting the Bible starts this week. Throughout the course of the next three episodes we will be answering the questions: How do we read the Bible as literature? How was the Bible written over time? How do we read the Bible in and out of context? Jeff, Mona and Allen kick everything off with a conversation laying out why the Bible should be recognized as literature and what that means for engaging the text. Rounding out the episode is our second attempt at Pursuit of the Trivial.
