This is a New Ventures Resource

As a pastoral leader, I often get questions about the Bible. Where it came from, why it’s called God’s Word, is it trustworthy and is it still applicable today in the 21^st century. These are great questions we must revisit if we desire to re-engage with a world that often gets many conflicting messages by those who claim to believe in the authority of the Bible.

Over the next few weeks we are going to explore some of these questions by studying an essential biblical idea. We will learn how to embrace the truth that the Bible is a gift to live into not just a book that we read. When this idea gets lost, we tend to use the Bible for personal debates hoping to find pure doctrinal answers. My hope is to help us think more theological about this issue so we will learn to see the Bible and its teaching as an invitation to believe that God is really making all things new.
