The Bible Unwrapped

Description

The Bible Unwrapped by Meghan Larissa Good

Are all the stories of the Bible true? What about the books that got left out? What do we make of all that violence? And what if we encounter situations the Bible doesn’t address?

Drawing from the best of contemporary biblical scholarship and the ancient well of Christian tradition, scholar and preacher Meghan Larissa Good helps readers consider why the Bible matters. Good delves into issues like biblical authority, literary genre, and Christian centred hermeneutics, and calls readers beyond knee-jerk biblicalism, on the one hand, or skeptical disregard on the other. Instead, The Bible Unwrapped invites readers to faithful reading, communal discernment, and deep transformative wonder about Scripture.

Join an honest conversation about the bible that is spiritually alive and intellectually credible. Read the ancient story of God in the world. You may even learn to love it.
