What is the Bible?

from The What Now Podcast: Where Your Feet Are · host Adam Shinn and Rob Fultz

In this episode of Where Your Feet Are, Mitch joins Adam to tackle a huge question in a really accessible way: What is the Bible?If you’re new to faith, curious about Jesus, or you’ve grown up around church but never really understood how the Bible works, this one’s for you. Mitch breaks the Bible down like a library, not just one book—walking through the different types of writings in the Old and New Testaments (law, history, poetry, prophets, Gospels, letters, and Revelation) and why that matters for how we read it today.You’ll hear about:Why there are 66 books and how they fit togetherWhat genres are in the Bible and how that shapes what you’re readingHow chapters and verses got there (and why they can sometimes get in the way)How the early church decided which books made it into the BibleWhat translations are, why they sound different, and how to pick oneThe deeper “why” behind the Bible: not just information, but knowing JesusMitch closes by unpacking what it means to actually follow Jesus through Scripture—moving from just reading words to sitting at His feet, like Mary did, and letting truth lead you into real freedom.If you’ve ever thought, “The Bible seems confusing, complicated, or outdated,” this episode will give you a clear, practical starting point—without pressure, without perfect answers, and always right where your feet are.Ask your questions or share your story at whatnow.church or email [email protected], and you might hear it on a future episode.
