Book Description:
An accessible guide to thoughtfully and faithfully reading and interpreting the Bible in our polarized world.
Can Christians navigate the use of biblical texts that are quoted and used to support points across the political spectrum? What principles exist for interpreting those that support conflicting viewpoints? In An Inspired Word in Season, biblical scholar Thomas Bolin addresses these pressing questions by equipping readers with an interpretive toolkit to more thoughtfully and faithfully use the Bible as a moral guide to inform their thinking as Christian citizens.
Drawing upon U.S. history and contemporary social debates, along with the centuries old interpretive traditions used in reading the Bible, this book describes how biblical interpretations can be so diverse and offers an interpretive principle for helping to bridge the gaps that divide Christians who rely on the Bible as a resource for thinking about important social issues. In An Inspired Word in Season, Thomas Bolin offers readers a guide for responsible use of the Bible for discerning modern ethical questions, forming reasoned opinions on current political issues, and examining the Bible’s relevance to modern life.
