Episode Description:

Shawn McCraney discusses the Traditional View of Scripture (TVOS) versus the Proper View of Scripture (PVOS), contrasting how TVOS perceives the Bible as a rulebook with objective faith and directives, while PVOS interprets it as a spiritual guide offering wisdom and encouraging subjective faith and unity among believers through principles and themes. He emphasizes that PVOS focuses on love and liberating the reader, maintaining that scripture should be understood as a living text motivating spiritual growth, rather than a collection of man-made doctrines that divide and confine.
