The Gathering 2014 – Disarming Scripture: A Discussion with Derek Flood

December 04, 2014

Here it is - the first episode from the BtB Gathering 2014 in Nashville, TN! This episode was recorded at the first ever BtB Gathering, where we were joined by wonderful people from all over the US and Canada. It was three days filled with great conversations and virtual friendships finding connection in the physical world.

In this first episode, the BtBers have a roundtable discussion with Derek Flood about some of the ideas in his new book Disarming Scripture: Cherry-Picking Liberals, Violence-Loving Conservatives, and Why We All Need to Learn to Read the Bible Like Jesus Did. This podcast begins with a 30 minute presentation by Derek, followed by 30 minutes of discussion with Derek and the BtB group, followed by another 30 minutes among the BtBers at the Gathering. In other words, there is a lot of great conversation to be found here! Derek's new book Disarming Scripture is now available, and if you resonate with the content of this podcast you will love it! Thanks to Derek for joining us for this special time, and to the BtB clan for being a part of such a wonderful event!
