About this listen
Ever feel like the Word turns into the Wild, Wild West? Me too.
But when it comes to Bible interpretation, it’s not “anything goes.” In this episode, we talk about why Scripture can’t mean whatever we want it to mean.
Join me as we unpack hermeneutics in plain language and avoid common interpretation pitfalls. Grab a coffee, saddle up, and let’s tame the chaos.

Here’s a small excerpt: "Because the goal of quality hermeneutics is to get down to the plain meaning. Quality interpretation isn’t meant to be one-of-a-kind. There are no points here for creativity and uniqueness. Usually if someone’s touting a “hidden gem” or “secret insight” about the Word, that’s a pretty easy tell that it’s off somewhere...or maybe a snake oil salesman. We’re looking to make good sense of the text, as in common sense."
