The Bible for Grownups: Something Happened

As kids we were told what to think about the Bible by parents, grandparents, and Sunday school teachers. They informed our view of it. As a result, we based our understanding of the Bible not on reading it but on what we were told about it as children, and we all carry our childhood perspectives on the Bible into adulthood. Perhaps the perspective on the stories in the Bible begins by understanding the story of the Bible.
