Reading the Bible Again for the First Time: Taking the Bible Seriously But Not Literally by Marcus J. Borg

4.0

Four stars mainly because it's the book I've been waiting for (even though it's two decades old) but didn't know it. Borg offers an alternative to the literal approach of reading the bible and so makes a way for the rest of us (those unable to read the text literally) to engage with scripture in a way that feels intellectually honest. I'd highly recommend it as a starting point for those who feel conflicted about the bible.
