November 26, 2021SWDGISS: How Did We Get the Bible
Stuff We Didn’t Get In Sunday School is our episode series where we attempt to shine a light on our spiritual or biblical blindspots. We interrogate this knowledge void to understand why we developed this gap in awareness and whether or not it changes or challenges the complexion of our beliefs.
Dust off that old KJV and brush up on your Hebrew, because today we’re talking about how we got the Bible. Join Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon as she chats with Knox and Jamie about how we went from holy mixtapes (a.k.a. scrolls) to that cleanly bound book sitting in the back of your pew? Along the way, you’ll hear deep dives into church history, a look at the eastern spread of Christianity, and a conversation surrounding the fear that many of us have over pulling on the thread of our faith. All this and more awaits you in our most Biblical episode yet!

Check that heart monitor in case you get too excited because we’re deep-diving The Incredible Hulk.

Along the way, you’ll hear discussions on continuity errors and plot holes, how this film could be a perfect example of deconstruction, and why Edward Norton did not reprise this smashing role.
