There are a lot of difficulties in the Bible. Whether it’s women, the end times, or a centering of particular people, contextual study is not a way to sanitize scripture and make it an easier read. However, you can read between the (literal) lines on the page when you learn how to read in context.
Savannah Locke invites you to ask good questions so you can better understand what you read historically and critically. If you’re afraid of believing harmful, toxic interpretations, context is the Paul Hollywood handshake of your discipleship.
