Last December (2014), I had the privilege of participating in a podcast interview with Darrell Bock and the Dallas Theological Seminary program The Table. I was joined by my friend Andreas Köstenberger (co-author of The Heresy of Orthodoxy).
The interview covered a wide range of topics related to inspiration and inerrancy, particularly last year’s popular blog series by Peter Enns entitled “Aha Moments.” That series highlighted evangelical scholars who have discovered things in their biblical research that have caused them to change their views about inerrancy.
In response, I offered a brief series on my own website entitled “Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages.” I invited a number of prominent evangelical scholars wrote brief posts to deal with some of the issues raised by Enns. While I was hoping to include a few more installments in that series, time has slipped away and a few folks were not able to get to their contribution as planned. Regardless, I include the final installments here:
New Series: Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages
Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages #1 (Greg Beale)
Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages # 2 (Craig Blomberg)
Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages #3 (Darrell Bock)
Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages #4 (Andreas Köstenberger)
Does the Bible Ever Get it Wrong? Facing Scripture’s Difficult Passages#5 (John Currid)
Here is a shot from the video roundtable with Darrell Bock, Andreas Köstenberger and myself. To watch, go here.

I watched the roundtable,(not your average configuration unless that guy has eyes in the back of his head- a lot of teachers do apparently) its true in my experience, we hear a term & place a concept on it but there can be so much more to it. The ahah moment for me though was, boy there is so much I dont know (which can be a good thing). There were some crucial explanations there, insightful & really interesting.
I wasnt mature enough years ago but now it is such a joy to learn & put it all together. These kinds of explanations would seem to suit a sermon at times. The layperson is very targeted these days on the internet. thanks again for your labours.
