Thursday, January 21, 2010 at 6:36PM On most Sundays (like, 99% of the time) I preach on the Bible. That is to say, I preach on a specific story from the Bible. But this Sunday I'm going to preach about the Bible: what we believe about it, what we don't, how we should read it, and how we should not. How do we make sense of the Bible for our lives in the here and now? Come on Sunday and learn. See you in church!
