How Does Culture influence how we read the Bible? | Kingdom Thinking - Ep 52

Kingdom Thinking: Today, Hansel and Josh dive into a discussion about culture and its affects on how we read the Bible. It is impossible to not be affected by the people and world around us but how do we make sure that we are understanding Scripture how God meant for us to? How can we recognize our cultural bias when reading God's Word? Is there anything we can do about it? We discuss all this and more on today's episode! SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC75rOa0GYkOfjwN7tXNCxdQ?sub_confirmation=1 This is Kingdom Thinking hosted by Hansel Flores and Josh Carman. On this show, we view everything through the lens of Scripture and we will not tell you what you should think or believe. Rather, we will give you the context and the tools to help equip you to make a biblically informed decision.
