This past Sunday I had the privilege of speaking at Creekside Church. We are working through a series called “Can You Trust the Bible.” On Sunday I talked about how to read the Bible as a narrative. Too often I think people approach the Bible with the wrong motives or assumptions about the text. My understanding ofContinue reading “Sunday’s Message Had Legos”
