Welcome back to our How to Read the Bible series!
In this session, Pastor Steven Hiller helps us dive into Old Testament Narrative—the dominant genre of Scripture, making up over 43% of the Bible! 📖✨
Understanding context and genre is key to interpreting any passage, and today we’ll explore why God communicates through story, how narratives shape our hearts and minds, and the essential literary tools for interpretation.
We’ll cover:
✅ Why stories are powerful and how they shape faith
✅ How plot structure reveals meaning
✅ The role of characters, themes, and symbols
✅ Why the Bible is a dramatic plot, not episodic
✅ How Old Testament narratives point to Jesus By the end of this lesson, you'll be equipped to read biblical stories in their proper context, avoiding common misinterpretations and uncovering the rich, unified story of Scripture.
