Various Scriptures - The Bible has a long, complex and very human story of how it came be (and how it came to us). In this message, we examine what it means that the Bible was co-produced by a number of people, some known and some unknown. Using only the Bible itself, we explore some of it what it means for the Bible to be a collection of texts that were composed, canonized, transmitted, and translated in history. In doing so, we learn that the Bible being a human word does not diminish the fact that it is also a divine Word. A sermon by Cameron Heger and Kyle Sunderland. [Part 3 of our series "The Very Words of God: Answering, trembling & delighting before the Holy Scriptures"]

Questions for reflection: 1) What have you been taught up to this point about where the Bible came from? 2) Was there anything new, exciting, or challenging in what Cameron shared about the overall picture? 3) Why do you think the human side of the Bible’s production is sometimes viewed as scandalous? 4) Why do you think we can have confidence in our modern English Bible translations? 5) What relevance does the divinity/humanity of Jesus have for how we think the Bible?
