Show Notes

As you probably know, Platinum members of the blog receive several additional perks — a quarterly webinar with me, a chance to provide a “guest post” for Platinum members only, and so on. After several of the guest posts have been posted, the Platinum members vote on one of them to be posted on the entire blog for all blog members to read. Would you be interested in getting in on that action? Check out the membership tiers and see what it (and each of the tiers) involves. Just click Join Now and you’ll see them. Here is the latest Platinum post winner, Frederick Ackun, who provides us with an unusually interesting set of reflections on issues related to faith, knowledge, and how to read the Bible — important matters for anyone interested in our blog. Here is Frederick’s post. Enjoy! Read by Petra Ortiz
