Scripture as Communal Literature
from Eden Teachings Podcast Hosted by Eden Church
In contemporary Western Christian culture, most people engage the Bible by themselves. Typically referred to as “quiet time,” there is richness and beauty to be gained from a time of personal reflection on the Scriptures. However, that method has not been the norm throughout most of Church history. For the majority of Church history, people heard the Scriptures read aloud in a group or saw Bibles displayed graphically in their churches.Reading the Scriptures alone is beautiful, but the Bible is aimed at shaping and organizing a community of Jesus followers, of kingdom people, to put on display the wisdom and love of God in real, practical, and powerful ways. It was designed to help communities of people to see the world a certain way and to live in the world a certain way. Teacher: Caleb Sprinkle Text: Various
