On Inerrancy and Other Boring Ways to Reading the Bible - With James McGrath

Rethinking Faith

This week, New Testament Scholar James F. McGrath joins me to talk about his latest book, "The A to Z of the New Testament: Things Experts Know That Everyone Else Should Too". Many of us grew up with notions and understandings of the New Testament that were unhelpful to say the least. James introduces us to the normative conversations taking place within the academic world of Biblical Scholarship. What if we were to engage the New Testament on its own terms? What if the New Testament is a lot cooler, more weird, and significantly more interesting than just some innerrant document that fell out of the sky? Well friends... it's time to start reading the New Testament like adults. Enjoy!
