Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • When was biblical theology on your radar?
  • What are the “aha” moments when telling the story of the Bible?
  • How does understanding the Bible as a great narrative change one’s faith?

Guest Bio:

Courtney Doctor is an author, Bible teacher, frequent conference and retreat speaker, and periodic blogger. She received an MDiv from Covenant Theological Seminary in 2013 and is the author of several Bible studies, including From Garden to Glory, Steadfast, and In View of God's Mercies. She currently serves as the Director of Women's Initiatives for The Gospel Coalition. Her greatest desire in all of this is to be able to faithfully study, apply, and teach the word of God and help others to do the same. God has blessed Courtney and her husband, Craig, with four wonderful children, three great kids-in-law, five sweet grandchildren — and their much-loved, goofy dog, Walter.
