What You'll Learn:
The Bible is simultaneously complex and magnetic—riddled with accounts that confound us and stories that compel us. Epic poetry flows from the same pages upon which the Leviathan swims, the Apostles minister to the poor, and a bleeding woman touches the cloak of God. Whether you poured over the Psalms every night before bedtime prayers or are just coming to the text in adulthood, all Christians must contend with the mysterious miracle that is the Word of God. Bestselling author Rachel Held Evans challenges doubt with a search, prodding the depths of the poetry, parables, and epistles of the Bible to read life in its pages and prove that the Word is more than a religious text—it’s a living experience.
Key Insights:
- If you’re caught in confusion, don’t close your Bible—instead, question and converse just like Israel.
- Recognizing the genre of a biblical text enables a deeper understanding of its purpose.
- The actions of women during war bring clarity to difficult passages.
- In the case of Paul’s letters, context matters.
- God reveals Himself through story—from the Babylonian exile to the arrival of Jesus.
