Functionality Redux.

Scripture is functional. Hearers of the Bible are directed to this reality over and over again by the text itself. From the different titles applied to Jesus in different places to the incessant repetition of God's commandments, and even the symbolic value of numbers - all of these point to the functionality of Scripture. The question then arises: if we are to hear Scripture functionally, are we as followers also supposed to live functionally? In this episode, I am joined by Noël Neff who poses that very question. Listen as we discuss functionality in Scripture.

What is A Light to the Nations?

A Light to the Nations is a bi-weekly podcast examining all parts of the biblical story from a functional perspective. Instead of asking what words means, we consider instead their function, i. e., how they are used in other parts of the Bible. In each episode will discuss the functionality of words and how that allows us hear the teaching.
