    September 16, 2016

    “You gotta have faith!” Tough to argue with that, but what does that mean, exactly?

    Skeptics give various reasons why the Bible is not reliable, including that 30- to 60-year time gap between when the events of Jesus’s ministry happened and when they were written down.

    Context is king—that’s one of the guiding Bible study principles of the Discover the Word group.
