The Bible isn’t one book. It’s a collection of books written across centuries, filled with stories, songs, prophecies, and letters. Each genre has a unique way of communicating God’s truth. In this episode, Dr. David Orges teaches how understanding biblical genre transforms the way we interpret and teach Scripture.

You’ll learn how to read and teach different genres — narrative, poetry, law, prophecy, wisdom, and apocalyptic — in ways that honor their original purpose and context. With examples from Psalm 23 and Revelation 1, David shows how genre shapes both meaning and application.

This episode includes insights from his blog post,  How to Approach Different Biblical Genres available now at the Truth in the Text Blog.

Whether you lead a small group, Bible class, or Sunday School, this episode will equip you to teach the Bible the way God wrote it: with clarity, confidence, and reverence for every form of His Word.

Because there’s always Truth in the Text.
