How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian

In How to Read the Bible and Still be a Christian, acclaimed Bible scholar John Dominic Crossan examines the conflicting portrayals of Jesus and God found in Scripture—one as a figure of love and compassion and the other as vengeful and destructive. He explores how various biblical authors present different visions of God, often competing with each other, and offers guidance for Christians grappling with these contradictions. Through deep, reflective reading and community engagement, Crossan encourages believers to navigate these complexities, enriching their faith and understanding of the Bible.
