SWDGISS: How We Got the Bible
Dust off that old KJV and brush up on your Hebrew, because today we’re talking about how we got the Bible. Join Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon as she chats with Knox and Jamie about how we went from holy mixtapes (a.k.a. scrolls) to that cleanly bound book sitting in the back of your pew? Along the way, you’ll hear deep dives into church history, a look at the eastern spread of Christianity, and a conversation surrounding the fear that many of us have over pulling on the thread of our faith. All this and more awaits you in our most Biblical episode yet!
