Looking Through New Lenses

With the help of the study, “Bible Stories for Grown Ups” by Pastor Josh Scott, this series will invite us to consider new and deeper meanings in Bible characters and events that may be very familiar and yet can also be disturbing and challenging. As people who embrace the scripture as “wonderful words of life”, how do these passages call us into deeper discipleship today? 

“We need grown-up lenses because these stories really weren’t written for children. They were written for grown-ups. They are nuanced and complicated, but doing the hard work of reading and interpreting them through these new lenses is worth it - it opens up new layers of understanding and possibility.” pg. xxi
