Resource: KIT (K334=) Making Sense of the Bible     
Author: ADAM HAMILTON
Publisher: ABINGDON PRESS, 2014
Vendor: COKESBURY
Subjects: 6-8 WEEK STUDIES; ADULT STUDY; BIBLE
Location: BIBLE
Description: Denominations from evangelical to mainline continue to experience deep divisions over universal social issues. The underlying debate isn’t about the particular social issue, but instead it is about the "authority of the Bible." Addressing the key questions and hot button issues that plague the church and cultural debate, Hamilton organizes the book according the concerns that matter most:
What is the Bible?
The Bible, Science, and History
The Bible and the Violence of God
The Bible and Changing Social Values
The Bible’s Power and Authority Today
Hamilton, for the first time, offers an all-encompassing look at his spiritual views. Here, he proposes a new way of seeing scripture that is more elastic, realistic and human than many conservatives currently see it while more divine and authoritative than many progressives see it. In this way, Making Sense of the Bible helps readers make sense of the Bible and leads them to a deeper appreciation for it, and a desire to read it and live by its precepts.
In this six week video study, Adam Hamilton explores the key points in his new book, Making Sense of the Bible. With the help of a downloadable leader’s guide, the video presentations from the author lead groups through the book, focusing on the most important questions we ask about the Bible, its origins and meaning.
All video sessions are closed captioned.
Age Groups: Young Adult; Adult (30-55); Adult (55+)
