Are there unicorns in the Bible? Did Jesus ride on dinosaurs? If we're honest, there are a lot of strange and uncomfortable passages in Scripture, and lately they've led to a lot of people abandoning the faith. Many others have used them to attack the Bible and discredit Christianity.

Dan Kimball joins us to talk about these difficult parts of the Bible and how understanding their ancient context helps us make sense of them. His new book How (Not) To Read the Bible equips Christians and non-Christians alike with ground rules for reading Scripture well, which leads to better interpretation of some of its wildest and most challenging parts.
