How Mackie, Pageau, and Walton Changed My Mind on Genesis |Genesis Series Ep 7
from The Belfast Podcast · host Luke Byler
In Luke's final episode in the Genesis Series, he attempts to address more basic questions about what the Biblical text is doing on earth in Genesis. What kind of text is it? How does it operate? And how are we meant to take that?

Luke and Daniel see the trend of modernism doing no favors for a vibrant view of scripture. Our goal is to widen the field of vision for modern people reading the Bible as we grapple with its ancient context, literary beauty, and symbolic underpinnings. You may have been taught to read texts with an eye for their literary and symbolic structures in English courses in high school and/or college, but rarely is this taught to seminary students or lay Christians alike when it comes to the Bible. We want to keep this eye for symbolism, repetition, and structure as we investigate the Biblical canon, linking it to modern and old examples that are extemporaneous yet connected to aid in giving the broader field of vision mentioned earlier. Come along with us on our journey to reread your bible for the first time. We hope that through the words of those who have come before us, we can give Western Christianity its imagination back.
