Most Christians would agree that the Bible provides a basis for mission. But Christopher Wright boldly maintains that mission is bigger than that - there is in fact a missional basis for the Bible. The entire Bible is generated by and is all about God's mission. In order to understand the Bible, we need a missional hermeneutic of the Bible, an interpretive perspective that is in tune with this great missional theme. We need to see the "big picture" of God's mission and how the familiar bits and pieces fit into the grand narrative of Scripture.

In a book that took eight years to research and write, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Ehrman explores how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty Creator of all things. Ehrman sketches Jesus's transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus's followers had visions of him after his death - alive again - did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God.

Story
"Arguably the most distinctive feature of the early Christian literature," writes Bart Ehrman, "is the degree to which it was forged." The Homilies and Recognitions of Clement; Paul's letters to and from Seneca; Gospels by Peter, Thomas, and Philip; Jesus' correspondence with Abgar, letters by Peter and Paul in the New Testament - all forgeries. To cite just a few examples.

Story
Many Christians mistakenly believe that their only choice is either to reconcile themselves to a fundamentalist reading of scripture (a "literal-factual" approach) or to simply reject the Bible as something that could bring meaning and value into their lives. In Reading the Bible Again for the First Time, Marcus Borg shows how instead we can freshly appreciate all the essential elements of the Old and New Testaments - from Genesis to Revelation - in a way that can open up a new world of intelligent faith.

The Council of Nicea was not clerics in a dark and ornate hall. It was brawls in churchyards; it was emperors and governors fighting to save the empire; it was political intrigue as the governments of church and state blended into a volatile stew. It was the way a fringe group of peace-loving communal worshipers of a crucified Palestinian prophet conquered the Roman Empire.

This is a very good book with great information, but if you're not a theologian, or very advanced in your biblical verbiage, it's very hard to understand.

Mr. Bernard’s books are always so well thought out and expressed. He is by far one of my favorite writers, especially in dealing with the oneness of God. I have read most of his books and the ones that I have not read I plan to.

A thorough framework for biblical interpretation
To say this text is logical is an understatement! In a time when most books attempt to offer a particular brand of biblical interpretation through the lens of doctrine, the book lays out a framework for analysis that guides the student to an understanding of the biblical text without allowing for preconceptions or imposed thoughts. Very good reference.

Brilliant and Well Spoken
I am an Apostolic Christian, Brother Bernards book was very deep and informative. He is extremely knowledgeable and helps believers put the word, facts, history and multiple paradigms of scripture in order. His books are often hard to follow if read physically with the eye; Audio book form is highly recommended.

** MUST READ **
This book is phenomenal! I encourage ALL believers, especially teachers/preachers to read this book for a greater understanding in regards to interpreting God's Word. This is a game changer. My personal summary is simply this... we should NEVER use God's word as a platform to express our OWN doctrines and/or ideas.
