How to Read Scripture Like the Ancient Church, Part 1
In this opening session of a new series, we consider how the Early Church read the Scriptures and why that way of reading still matters. Beginning with foundational assumptions—practice over theory, reading within the Church, and seeking communion with God Himself rather than mere head knowledge—the lesson introduces the fourfold pattern often called the quadriga. These four “horses” of interpretation (historical, Christological, moral, and eschatological) offer a framework for reading Scripture in a way that ultimately points us towards a fuller vision of Christ.⛪ Church of the Incarnation is an Anglican (ACNA) parish in western Henrico, Virginia, committed to: 📖 Biblical teaching for both head and heart 🕯️ Spiritual formation through liturgy and sacrament 🙏 A shared life of prayer and discipleship for all ages🌐 Learn more: https://incarnationrichmond.org
