This week Josh is joined by Faith Womack, a self-proclaimed Bible nerd and author of the new book No More Boring Bible Study, to talk about why so many Christians struggle with Scripture…and why misunderstanding the Bible can be far more dangerous than we realize.
Faith shares the very personal story of how her father’s habit of cherry-picking verses shaped (and shook) her early understanding of God — and how discovering a faithful hermeneutic at college completely transformed her relationship with Scripture.
