We couldn’t be more excited about today’s episode, and it’s with someone we’ve wanted to get on the podcast for years - Peter Enns.
Pete is a well-known bible scholar and is the Abram S. Clemens professor of Bible Studies at Eastern University in Pennsylvania.
In recent years, Pete has become well known for several highly popular books, including How the Bible Actually Works, The Bible Tells Me So, and the book we discussed with him today: The Sin of Certainty.
In addition to his research and writing, Pete co-hosts the podcast The Bible for Normal People.
In The Sin of Certainty, Pete opens up about his own faith journey, including what he calls “uh-oh” moments - those moments that, as Pete says, “wreak havoc with our neatly arranged thoughts of God, the world, and our place in it.” He makes the argument that a faith preoccupied with correct thinking can quickly become exhausting as we try to fit our “uh-oh” moments into our previous ways of thinking and believing. Pete insists that there’s a different way - the way of listening to our “uh-oh” moments and learning from them, even letting them change us - and finding our faith transform from a rigid certainty about God to a radical trust in God.
We really think you’re going to enjoy this conversation, and we’re super grateful to Pete for coming on.
