• “How the Bible Actually Works” by Peter Enns

  How should we read the Bible in a world shaped by science, history, and modern questions? What do we do when Scripture seems confusing, contradictory, or difficult to reconcile with our expectations?

  This fall, join Pastor Mark for a thoughtful and engaging study of Peter Enns’ How the Bible Actually Works. Enns invites readers to see the Bible not as a rulebook or answer key, but as a living story of God’s relationship with humanity—a collection of ancient writings that continues to shape faith today.

  Together, we’ll explore topics such as:

  • What kind of book the Bible is—and isn’t.
  • Why the biblical authors often interpret Scripture in surprising ways.
  • How understanding the Bible’s historical and cultural context deepens rather than weakens faith.
  • What it means to read Scripture faithfully as followers of Jesus today.

  Whether you’ve wrestled with difficult passages for years or simply want to deepen your understanding of Scripture, this class offers a welcoming space for honest questions, thoughtful conversation, and renewed appreciation for God’s Word.

  No prior biblical knowledge is required—just curiosity and a willingness to explore. Join us Wednesday evenings at 6 PM in Rudisill or online as we discover how the Bible continues to inspire, challenge, and transform our lives.
