In this book, the author addresses a common challenge among Christians: misinterpreting scripture due to a lack of context. Through personal anecdotes and theological insights, he explains how even seasoned theologians can misread passages. However, he argues that acknowledging the potential for misunderstanding allows room for growth and correction by God. By delving into the Book of Job—a frequently misunderstood text—the author illustrates how these interpretation techniques can be applied practically.

The book of Habakkuk is the eighth book of the 12 minor prophets in the Christian Old Testament.

This book is beautifully voiced by The Bible Reading Collective....

The book of Jonah details a narrative in which the central figure, Jonah, a prophet of the northern kingdom of Israel, tries to circumvent God's prophesy of destruction to Nineveh. Jonah discovered the futility of his actions after absconding on a boat; a storm leads to him getting swallowed by a fish and spat out on the shore where he began. This book is beautifully voiced by The Bible Reading Collective....

Jonah is not about a big fish, but a big God. Jonah is not about an angry prophet, but about a God who is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. Jonah is not about a prophet who goes down to Sheol, but a God who brings the dead to life. Jonah is not about Nineveh that great city, but about a God who is the Conqueror of kingdoms and the Ruler of nations. Jonah is not about a prophet who flees, but a God who pursues. Jonah is not about a king who puts on sackcloth, but about a God who takes on flesh.
