Listen as he shares his journey from growing up in southeast Kentucky—nominal church goer, losing his dad at 15 to a brain aneurysm, then drugs and partying—to finding Jesus on a Florida beach through a gospel tract and Christian friends, sparking a deep hunger for God’s Word that led to ministry, Bible college, missions, and recently finishing his PhD at Dallas Theological Seminary.We cover his intense PhD experience (theological languages, walking 48 miles a week memorizing Scripture for comps, 125k-word dissertation just approved), his testimony, teaching at Ethnos360 Bible Institute for over 20 years, and why the Bible is one unified grand narrative.He walks through the Story of Scripture: God’s original plan for humanity as image-bearers (Genesis 1–2), the fall and serpent conflict (Genesis 3), the seed promise of a coming Deliverer, building through Abraham, Israel, David’s line, the prophets, and finding its fulfillment in Jesus as the promised Seed and King. We also hit literary structure, how books connect across the Bible, why Old Testament context matters for missions and translation, and how seeing the big picture changes everything (no more random verse-picking).A must-listen for anyone wanting the Bible’s overarching story, DTS folks, biblical theology fans, or powerful redemption testimonies.Resources:Free Grand Narrative course: https://learn.e360bible.org/courses/grand-narrative-of-scriptureDr. Keen at DTS: https://www.dts.edu/employee/wiley-keenTeach Me The Bible podcast with Dr. David Klingler (chapter-by-chapter Bible teaching):Website: https://teachmethebible.com/podcastApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teach-me-the-bible/id1565986757Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5poVyWPw9CqTWzMWfyZ31MThe Biblical Story: https://thebiblicalstory.orgBooks mentioned:\"Living God's Word: Discovering Our Place in the Great Story of...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/OrXndCzRXnPn3duqLhroa0wN9qsIXhCuGQd0iH_U13g/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82NTlh/NDM1MGIwNDFhOWY0/ZTgzZjA1ZWExZTYz/YWM5Ny5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
