Today we're talking with Rev. Immanuel van Tonder, deconstructing our approach to the Bible. What if taking it literally is just as unhelpful as constantly picking every detail apart? How do we determine which parts apply today and which parts we have to look deeper? What is OUR intent as we approach Scripture, and how does that change what we TAKE AWAY from it?
I LOVED this interview and can't wait to share it with you. Welcome back to "Outgrowing the Good Christian Girl"!
XOXO, Tiffany
