Scripture Untangled

Dr. Andy Steiger is the founder and president of Apologetics Canada (AC), dedicated to helping Christian communities grow in their faith and share their hope. Listen as Andy and Lorna discuss this generation of young people - both Christians and non-Christians alike - who have questions and are seeking truth. The challenge in Western culture is communicating the message of Jesus in a way that people can understand and appreciate. Sharing the gospel requires us all to understand and speak the language of culture and address the questions being asked with intellectual honesty, gentleness and respect.

Andy is the author of Reclaimed: How Jesus Restores Our Humanity in a Dehumanized World released in 2020. In 2018, The Human Project debuted at film festivals around the world and won a number of awards including Best Short Film and People's Choice. 

Andy speaks on gospel questions internationally at universities, conferences, churches, prisons, and coffee shops. Between his 20 years of experience as a pastor and his completion of a PhD at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland, Andy brings both experience and research to his work.

Andy currently lives in Abbotsford, British Columbia with his wife, Nancy, and their two boys.

I would say God loves technology. You know, He gave Noah a detailed blueprint of a boat, and gave him the plans to build it. You know, like, if that's not technology, I don't know what is. And so I think, God has a heart for tech and I think He inspires technology. You know, a lot of times, it's easy to get fearful of new technology. And you see that a lot now, especially with artificial intelligence, you know...let's look at all the possible negative things that could come from this technology and I don't dispute that. But I would also say that like, you know, how do you think about technology redemptively? And so I, you know, believe there's a massive opportunity for redemptive technology, technology that is sacrificial, that we are using the gifts and skills that God has given us to redeem the broken world around us.

It is comfort. It is the true source of joy, of hope, of peace. The Word of God is not just a holy, you know, canon of scriptures, it is a roadmap. It's where we draw our identity from. It is the place of comfort and solace. It's where we can sit at the feet of Jesus, and just feel held and strengthened from God's hand. It's just this incredible...I think I never saw the Word of God like I see it now. It was definitely a sword when I needed it to be a sword when I was fighting and overcoming and, you know, facing a lot of battles but man, it has been this incredible source. This river of comfort for me.

So, what if people when they encountered us, they found not this kind of burdensome, like drudgery, but they found life. They found people asking the question every day: Okay, Spirit of God what are you calling me to do to care for God's world today? I think if people just ask that question every day, it'll probably change. It'll probably...it might start with, let's use ceramic mugs instead of disposables. But I dare say it won't end there.

The Holy Spirit is our teacher. I think there is a certain comfort we have to have with not understanding everything and that's okay. That's where faith comes in but I think having people who can walk with you through the Bible, especially when you're starting is super important. But I would just say there's so many ways to do it and stop condemning ourselves for not doing it enough, doing it perfectly, you know, understanding it enough...just the freedom to just be an explorer and, you know, just be a learner, even if you don't understand it, just keep putting it into you. I really do believe the Bible... it says it's sharper than a two-edged sword, that it brings life to us, and I think there's truth about that, that we need to return to because it's just really easy to leave it behind. And then we're thinking things that aren't anything near how God thinks about things, which is completely opposite to how you would naturally think...I think 100%, completely opposite. So yeah, renew our minds. We need to do it.

And you don't come to Scripture as something to mine as a...it's not a vein of coal that we can take and make something with. It's not a resource in that sense. It's something we can use for making or creating something to make to our advantage. It is something to be loved, cherished, adored, and nurtured. If we love it, we'll come to know it. And if we do that work in that order, I think the knowledge, the love knowledge that we get from that will really help us be a witness to the very whoness of who God is. And there's two books to pay attention to. There's the book of Scripture, and there's the book of nature. God wrote them both and if we love them, we're gonna get to the whoness of God. And out of that we can become a light in a dark world.
