How the Bible Actually Works: In Which I Explain How An Ancient, Ambiguous, and Diverse Book Leads Us to Wisdom Rather Than Answers—and Why That's Great News by Peter Enns

4.0

This is an important book for helping Christians approach the Bible. Since the Bible shares rules, many of us have been taught that the Bible is a rule book with a clear do-this-don't-do-that set of maxims. Peter Enns does a good job showing how the Bible is really an ongoing conversation by people of faith. And how the Bible seems designed to allow us to continue that conversation. Much of what he shares helped give depth to some of my thinking. But I found the book created more questions than it gave answers.

Which might just be the point.

I received a copy from HarperOne as part of the book launch team.
