Amanda Pence: Understand your hermeneutic (yes, you’re using one right now!) Part 1

Bible Teacher Amanda Pence wants you to know your hermeneutic—that is, what lens you’re looking through when you read the Bible. There is no perfect “plain reading” of scripture. We all interpret our way through this library, written by many people in various times, places, & situations—& bring much of our own context to the page. Amanda tells us her story of how studying the Bible broke her out of what some call the “Biblical Worldview” & led her to a loving, inclusive, understanding of what Christ & the Holy Spirit are up to.Amanda Pence MA is a Bible scholar who graduated with highest honors from Talbot School of Theology (Biola University). She is committed to studying the Bible in context & with a commitment to its inspiration & authority. She is also an Evangelical LGBTQIA+ advocate who affirms the full inclusion of all siblings of faith, in all levels of the church.
