About this listen

Not every trail is the same—and not every book of the Bible is either. In this episode, we lace up our boots and hike through the major genres of Scripture—narrative, law, wisdom, poetry, prophecy, the Gospels, epistles, and apocalyptic—to see why knowing the type of text changes how we read it. Because genre doesn’t change God’s truth; it helps us understand how that truth is communicated. Grab your trail map and let’s walk through the Word together—minus the blisters, of course.

Here's a small excerpt:

"We need to know the kind of book, what genre, we’re reading to know how to approach it. Are we supposed to take this verse literally? Wait, does this apply to me? Please tell me Revelation isn’t actually gonna bring horses and a sword comin’ out the Rider's mouth! For real? Yeah, knowing the type of book changes how we read it."
