Every single person who reads the Bible brings their own perspective and interpretation to it. And yet so many people have weaponized this text based on their one specific lens. Today, lead pastor Josh Scott reflects on what it might look like for progressive Christians to take the Bible seriously. He breaks down the three key areas of disagreement between progressive and conservative Christians about the Bible — its origin, its authority, and its interpretation — and encourages us to view the Bible through the lens of human flourishing.
