He made several great points, one of which is this (I'm paraphrasing); "Don't expect the Bible to stay within ONE Religious Ideal." He didn’t really expound on this, but I’m sure his thoughts would send shivers up some of our Oneness spines!

Another point that kind of reached out and grabbed me was, allow yourself to become part of the story. He said the Bible is nothing but a series of stories, covering every aspect of our lives, with Redemption at the core. We all fit somewhere, as the Human element throughout Scripture is obvious.

Roy also pointed out that to "Challenge" the Bible is a MUST! Severe doubt will yield answers.

Roy is a very educated and qualified individual to expound on the Historical and analytical layout of Scripture, and he admits the Bible is COMPLICATED. I will be curious to see how his ideas evolve (If I'm still around ) many years from now.

Experience always brings transformation.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for letting me know you took a listen.

I thought it gave up some humble ground, and really encouraged even me how to approach the Bible.
