Dr. Peter Enns joins the fellas for a candid discussion on faith, complexity, and institutional conflict. Enns recounts the "very scary" reality of losing his academic boundaries after teaching at Westminster Theological Seminary for 14 years, following the controversy surrounding his book, Inspiration and Incarnation. He delves into the core issue: the historical evidence showing the Bible is written by real people during real cultures. Enns shares his deeply personal journey through doubt, realizing he valued integrity and authenticity above all else.
He advocates for embracing the Bible’s multivocality—the way scripture "speaks with multiple voices" on the same topic. Ultimately, he argues, Christianity is about "faithing God," or simply trusting the divine presence. Discover why Enns believes the church must accept mystery and embrace the need for a third millennium theology.
