What Is the Bible?: How an Ancient Library of Poems, Letters, and Stories Can Transform the Way You Think and Feel About Everything by Rob Bell

5.0

Fabulous book! I don't think it matters whether you consider yourself a person of the Christian faith or a skeptic or anywhere in between; this book really uncovers the complex relationships of social, political, economic, and psychological agendas interwoven within historical contexts of human history and how stories of the time shaped early humans then and how they can continue to shape our understanding and evolution now. And if you don't mind audiobooks, I'd recommend listening to the version narrated by the author - his energy, passion, and conviction adds another layer to the understanding that this book helps reach about humanity and the human struggle to understand ourselves and the world around us while continuing to BE in the world.
