Questions of how the Bible should be read by modern Christians have never been more important than they are today. What does it mean to read the Bible through a sociohistorical lens? Can identifying the politics of its ancient Judean writers help us navigate the twenty-first century? On this episode of The Distillery, Jonathan Lee Walton discusses his book A Lens of Love: Reading the Bible in Its World for Our World. Join us as we explore the dangers of biblical literalism, unpack alternative approaches to hard-to-interpret texts, and discover how the Bible can lead us to a new moral imagination.

Guest: Jonathan Lee Walton | Host: Shari Oosting
