What Parts of the Bible Should I Take Literally?

The point of being human is to love as God loves.

S3:E15 EPISODE SUMMARY

The Bible is a big confusing book with all kinds of stories and teachings. Are we supposed to take everything literally?

Or are we supposed to take everything metaphorically? And is it heretical to even ask such questions? You may be surpised that people of faith have been asking these types of questions about the Bible for thousands of years.

Join Pastor Adam as he discusses some of the surprising history behind biblical interpretation in this episode of One Question!
