Teaching | The Bible as an Alternative Story | Scripture E02
About this episode
Why do authoritarian governments often ban the Bible? John Mark talks about the how the library of Scripture is an alternative story: one that points to Jesus as the center of reality. He challenges us to let this story shape our lives and engage with these writings, even through its confusing, difficult, or challenging aspects.
Key Scripture Passage: Luke 4v14-22
