Is There Such a Thing as "My Truth"? || 10/24/2020 || ATT#75
There is a LOT of conversation happening in the culture –– and in churches –– right now that people experience the world very differently based on their gender or ethnicity. In fact, they experience SO differently that there really is no such thing as common human experience or objective truth. This has HUGE implications for things like how we interpret the Bible and what we believe to be morally right. Let's talk about it.

How to Interpret the Bible || 9/26/2020 || ATT#72
Surprise guest! Plus, we get a lot of inquiries that sound like, “What is your interpretation of this passage…?” Rather than creating an atmosphere of people being dependent on us to interpret the Scriptures FOR them, it is much better and healthier for us to teach y’all how to interpret the Scriptures for yourself.
