Description

We begin this series on deep questions with a discussion of the Bible as a source of fundamental truth? Is there any reason to believe it is more authoritative on matters of God than other religious books? Or any books at all? In this episode we look beyond the Bible's self-description as "God's word" and examine the experience of those who wrote it, and our own deep experience of life to see if there is an elemental resonance between the story scripture intends to tell and what we know of life in this age. The biblical passages referenced in this sermon are:  2 Tim. 3:16-17 (NRSV) Luke 22:54-62 (NRSV) John 21:15-19 (NRSV) Acts 4:1-20 (NRSV) Want more content from Jesus at 2AM??

One pastor's attempt at late-night-level honesty about the Bible, church history, theological scholarship, spiritual practice and...God. (AKA how one nearly-de-churched thinker discovered that love is the name of the game.)
