How does one learn to love the Bible again? For Liz Charlotte Grant, it is almost like a story from a movie: girl meets Bible, falls in love, discovers Bible's secret past, falls out of love with Bible, but eventually realizes she was really in love the whole time, once she learned how to look at the Bible in a new way. This is an eye-opening conversation about how the tools that scholars have used throughout the history of scripture, with names like Hermeneutic and Midrash and Eisegesis, helped bring the Bible back to life after deconstruction, and reconnect Grant with the essence of what she loved most about scripture.Liz Charlotte Grant is an award-winning nonfiction writer based in Colorado, USA. Her debut nonfiction book, Knock at the Sky: Seeking God in Genesis After Losing Faith in the Bible, was released by Eerdmans Publishing Co. on January 7, 2025. In 2024, she wrote a viral article chronicling the disturbing third marriage of an icon of white American evangelical purity culture, "Elisabeth Elliot, Flawed Queen of Purity Culture, and Her Disturbing Third Marriage," the Revealer Magazine, a publication of the Center for Religion and Media at New York University. Grant's Substack newsletter, the Empathy List, has received recognition from the Webby Awards and the Best of the Church Press Awards. Her work has also appeared in outlets such as the Huffington Post, Religion News Service, Hippocampus Magazine, Brevity, Sojourners, the Christian Century, Christianity Today, US Catholic, National Catholic Reporter.

Jennifer Powell McNutt joins the podcast once again to discuss her recent book, The Mary We Forgot: What the Apostle to the Apostles Teaches the Church Today (Brazos Press 2024). Mary Magdalene's story has often been undervalued and confused, in part due to what Jennifer calls the "muddle of Marys" in the Gospels. What can we gain by a more careful analysis of Mary's story? How can we be served by approaching the biblical text with a "hermeneutic of surprise"? How can Mary Magdalene serve as a model for Christian discipleship today? This and more on today's podcast.

Volume 2 of Kim Burgess and Gary DeMar's The Hope of Israel and the Nations is now available! Gary discusses the book, the series, and what Kim calls the "meta-hermeneutic" of the New Testament (p. 13). Why did Paul write letters and Luke write "historical documents?" Each writing had a particular motivation behind it and we must take this into consideration when interpreting them.

Send us a text by clicking this link!Our discussion traverses the rich tapestry of traditional Catholicism and the landmark changes ushered in by Vatican II. We examine the resurgence of the traditional Latin Mass and its resonance within American conservatism, highlighted by the perspectives of influential figures like Patrick Buchanan. The conversation delves into the "weaponized ambiguity" of Vatican II's documents and the resulting shifts in liturgical practices, doctrine, and the broader mission of the Church in a rapidly changing world. Through this lens, we scrutinize the contrasting views of contemporary leaders like Bishop Barron and traditionalists such as Archbishop Lefebvre, set against the backdrop of the cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s.The episode extends beyond historical debates to tackle contemporary theological and societal issues, from religious liberty and evolution to the contentious subject of vaccines and autism. We explore the profound reflections of Jordan Peterson on faith and reason and the Protestant ramblings of John Rich. This comprehensive discussion promises to offer a deep and enriching perspective on the ongoing dialogue within the Catholic Church, its traditions, and its future.

Today Dr. Dwight Radcliff, Academic Dean for the William E. Pannell Center for Black Church Studies at Fuller Seminary shares his story, his calling, and own personal journey from CD burning youth pastor to hearing David's cries in the voice of Biggie and Tupac. We learn about Dr. Radcliff's “Hip-Hop Hermeneutic” - a bi-focaled lens that brings nitty-gritty full humanity to scriptural interpretation. Dr. Radcliff reminds us that if the word of God is alive, it's full of emotion, and looking at scripture through the lens of hip-hop highlights the deep emotions reflected in both scripture and hip-hop. This conversation invites us to ask bigger questions and to give attention and influence to the experiences that form the Black worldview.
Pastor Kenny Keating teaches from Ephesians 4:20-24 which presents Jesus as both healer and our hermeneutic.

Michael Dunnigan discusses his book Religious Liberty and the Hermeneutic of Continuity: Conservation and Development of Doctrine at Vatican II. He addresses issues such as the foundation of religious liberty, whether Vatican II changed Catholic teaching, and what Dignitatis humanae is most fundamentally about.
In this conversation, Michael and Jason discuss the purpose and meaning of Genesis 1 and 2. They emphasize that Genesis is not a scientific account of the physical formation of the universe, but rather a theological narrative about God's desire to dwell with humanity within the themes of creation and new creation in the Bible. They explore the ancient structure of creation, with its seven days and God's rest on the seventh day. They also discuss the idea of creation as a temple, where God desires to dwell with humanity. The conversation raises the question of whether we sometimes exalt the text of the Bible over faith and God, and the dangers of doing so. They suggest reading the scriptures with more openness and humility, focusing on the heart of God rather than getting lost in the text.TakeawaysGenesis 1 and 2 are not scientific accounts, but theological narratives about God's desire to dwell with humanity.The goodness of creation emphasizes God's intention to create a space for humans to dwell with Him.Humans are called to be stewards of creation and participate in bringing order and purpose to the world.Creation suffers due to human sin and rebellion against God's calling.The ultimate goal of creation is for God to dwell with humanity in new creation.Chapters00:00- Introduction and Schedule Change10:09 - The Purpose of Genesis 1 and 212:46 - Understanding Creation in Genesis18:29 - The Significance of 'Good' in Genesis28:02 - The Desire for God to Dwell with Us33:33 - Creation Suffers Due to Human Sin37:33 - The Teleos of Creation41:43 - The Role of Humans as Image Bearers42:58 - The Ancient Structure of Creation45:11 - The Seventh Day and God's Rest48:11 - Creation as a Temple50:57 - God's Desire to Dwell with Us55:38 - Exalting the Text Over God59:38 - The Danger of Biblicism01:03:42 - The Hermeneutic of Expectancy

Summary In this episode, Tim Gillespie and Alex Bryan discuss the complexity of various issues, including the resignation of Harvard's first black president, the situation in the Middle East, freedom of speech, plagiarism claims, and diversity and gender issues. They emphasize the need for a hermeneutic of complexity and the importance of humility in dealing with complexity. They also explore the role of Jesus in holding all things together and the need for continued engagement with complexity. The episode concludes with a book recommendation and a call to support the podcast. In this episode of the Unapologetics podcast, the importance of emotional intelligence is explored. The conversation delves into the development of emotional intelligence and its impact on relationships and the workplace. Takeaways Complexity is a fundamental aspect of life and faith that should be acknowledged and embraced. A hermeneutic of complexity is needed to navigate the complexities of scripture, faith, and the world. Certainty and simplicity can be tempting, but they often oversimplify complex issues and hinder growth and understanding. Faithfulness involves acknowledging complexity, engaging with it, and holding it in tension. Jesus provides a framework for understanding and navigating complexity, offering a gravitational force that holds all things together. Emotional intelligence is crucial for personal and professional success. Developing emotional intelligence requires self-awareness and empathy. Emotional intelligence plays a significant role in building and maintaining healthy relationships. Emotional intelligence can enhance communication and collaboration in the workplace.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: A hermeneutic net for agency, published by Tsvi Benson-Tilsen on January 1, 2024 on The AI Alignment Forum. [Metadata: crossposted from https://tsvibt.blogspot.com/2023/09/a-hermeneutic-net-for-agency.html. First completed September 4, 2023.] A hermeneutic net for agency is a natural method to try, to solve a bunch of philosophical difficulties relatively quickly. Not to say that it would work. It's just the obvious thing to try. Thanks to Sam Eisenstat for related conversations. Summary To create AGI that's aligned with human wanting, it's necessary to design deep mental structures and resolve confusions about mind. To design structures and resolve confusions, we want to think in terms of suitable concepts. We don't already have the concepts we'd need to think clearly enough about minds. So we want to modify our concepts and create new concepts. The new concepts have to be selected by the Criterion of providing suitable elements of thinking that will be adequate to create AGI that's aligned with human wanting. The Criterion of providing suitable elements of thinking is expressed in propositions. These propositions use the concepts we already have. Since the concepts we already have are inadequate, the propositions do not express the Criterion quite rightly. So, we question one concept, with the goal of replacing it with one or more concepts that will more suitably play the role that the current concept is playing. But when we try to answer the demands of a proposition, we're also told to question the other concepts used by that proposition. The other concepts are not already suitable to be questioned - - and they will, themselves, if questioned, tell us to question yet more concepts. Lacking all conviction, we give up even before we are really overwhelmed. The hermeneutic net would brute-force this problem by analyzing all the concepts relevant to AGI alignment "at once". In the hermeneutic net, each concept would be questioned, simultaneously trying to rectify or replace that concept and also trying to preliminarily analyze the concept. The concept is preliminarily analyzed in preparation, so that, even if it is not in its final form, it at least makes itself suitably available for adjacent inquiries. The preliminary analysis collects examples, lays out intuitions, lays out formal concepts, lays out the relations between these examples, intuitions, and formal concepts, collects desiderata for the concept such as propositions that use the concept, and finds inconsistencies in the use of the concept and in propositions asserted about it. Then, when it comes time to think about another related concept - - for example, "corrigibility", which involves "trying" and "flaw" and "self" and "agent" and so on - - those concepts ("flaw" and so on) have been prepared to well-assist with the inquiry about "corrigibility". Those related concepts have been prepared so that they easily offer up, to the inquiry about "corrigibility", the rearrangeable conceptual material needed to arrange a novel, suitable idea of "flaw" - - a novel idea of "flaw" that will both be locally suitable to the local inquiry of "corrigibility" (suitable, that is, in the role that was preliminarily assigned, by the inquiry, to the preliminary idea of "flaw"), and that will also have mostly relevant meaning mostly transferable across to other contexts that will want to use the idea of "flaw". The need for better concepts Hopeworthy paths start with pretheoretical concepts The only sort of pathway that appears hopeworthy to work out how to align an AGI with human wanting is the sort of pathway that starts with a pretheoretical idea that relies heavily on inexplicit intuitions, expressed in common language. As an exemplar, take the "Hard problem of corrigibility": The "hard problem of corrigibility" is to bui...

John 7:14-24 (LSB)Our hosts consider how Jesus established authority to heal on the Sabbath. He had no Scriptural command, statement, or example. He had to draw conclusions and make judgments. Yet, He claimed over and again not to be acting on His own authority. We discover when we logically infer things from what God explicitly states and shows, that is still acting by His authority.Read the written devo that goes along with this episode by clicking here.

Thomas Merton—an eternal seeker, dislocated immigrant, and sojourner—left his mark on an Asian woman who was seeking a spiritual adventure. In many borderlands, the virgin points, Merton's hidden yet honest struggle inspire a deep connection with the immigrant woman in exile. Through a personal narrative of sojourning, an emphasis begins to manifest that her religious life began in Korea and found home in the US, contrasting Merton's journey of finding a home in Asia. Dancing with Thomas Merton led the woman to see her true self, beyond the East and West. Transformation occurs at the borderland, a space of encounter, struggle, writing, and contemplation. Jung Eun Sophia Park, SNJM, is associate professor at Holy Names University in California. She loves to give retreats, spiritual directions, and workshops in U.S. and other countries. Her academic interests are global justice and spirituality, shamanism, postcolonial feminism, and mysticism. Sophia has authored many books, including A Hermeneutic on Dislocation as Experience: Creating a Hybrid Identity, Constructing a Borderland Community, Conversations at the Well: Emerging Religious Life in the 21st Century Global World, Border-Crossing Spirituality: Transformation in the Borderland, and An Asian Woman's Religious Journey with Thomas Merton: Journey to the East/Journey to the West. She also wrote books in Korean, including Thoughtful Chats: How the Story Changed Women, Time Jor Sorrow, Beauty of the Broken, Seasons that I loved, Joy of Life, and For the Broken Humanities. She also writes articles on ordinary spirituality at the Korean Catholic News and offers women's spirituality lessons through YouTube.
Should the church look like it did in the first century?Chances are good that when you read Scripture, sometimes you encounter a situation where you wonder if what you're reading applies to you or not. We are making interpretive decisions every time we read the Bible, so Jerell helps us understand some of the considerations and implications of how we approach Scripture.
The doctrine of inerrancy, a Christocentric hermeneutic, the multiple genres of literature within the bible, Jesus as perfect theology, intimacy, trust, and the goodness of God, overcoming evil, loving our enemies, a non-violent God, forgiveness, the American Church's' obsession with retribution, Christocentric pacifism, our interconnected-ness, justice; in this conversation, Jared Neusch and the guys dive into a Christ-Centered approach to life, faith, and Scripture.

Paul and Dominic have a conversation with Shaun Blanchard about Vatican II and the development of doctrine. Shaun offers a brief history of the Church's understanding about how doctrine develops over the past few centuries and how that culminated at Vatican II. Then we discuss how the Church's teaching is not rigid or static but that the Church is always in a process of reform. As Dei Verbum says, “For as the centuries succeed one another, the Church constantly moves forward toward the fullness of divine truth until the words of God reach their complete fulfillment in her.”Shaun Blanchard is Senior Research Fellow at the National Institute for Newman Studies. A North Carolina native and graduate of UNC, Oxford (Blackfriars Hall), and Marquette, Shaun writes on a variety of topics in early modern and modern Catholicism. He is the author of The Synod of Pistoia and Vatican II (OUP: 2020) and, with Ulrich Lehner, co-edited The Catholic Enlightenment: A Global Anthology (CUA: 2021). With Stephen Bullivant, Shaun co-wrote Vatican II: A Very Short Introduction (OUP: 2023).Links:Traditionis Custodes Was Never Merely About the Liturgy https://churchlifejournal.nd.edu/articles/traditionis-custodes-was-never-merely-about-the-liturgy/The Reform Was Real: Continuity and change at Vatican II https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/reform-was-realABOUT POPE FRANCIS GENERATION Pope Francis Generation is the show for Catholics struggling with the Church's teaching, who feel like they might not belong in the Church anymore, and who still hunger for a God of love and goodness.

Seeing and beholding the glory [beauty] of Jesus Christ in His death, burial and resurrection is critical to growth in holiness and believing that Christ is the centerpiece of all of Scripture is the key to strongly beholding Him.
Mark taught Lesson 3 in the summer's Better Bible Study series expanding on three themes. 1. The surviving and thriving remnant. A remnant is a small piece or amount that is left from a larger original or amount. Mark detailed how God referred to the remnant of his people throughout scripture. 2. Spiritual warfare. This aspect begins in Genesis with Adam and Eve's encounter with Satan and fall, and carries through to Revelation. 3. A love story between God and his creation. The love theme is part of the week's homework. as well as the temple, and sacrifice themes. Points for home God can build a car out of spare parts. We are remnant people. Be alert to the fight around you. Be alert to the fight around you and pray.
Kim summarizes all that has been said in this series by using eight different sets of verses that explain and describe the spiritual hermeneutic of the New Testament. The Bible itself should be the guide and informing our understanding. (NOTE: This will be the last episode for a few weeks as we work on getting all of this material transcribed and put into book form.)

I really am curious if you've paid attention to what is in or left out of Children's bibles. And I have lingering questions! Do children's Bibles influence how teenagers engage the Bible?

Is the emotional opacity of men a social justice issue? In episode 71, Ellie and David break down the concepts of emotional and hermeneutic labor. The notion of emotional labor was originally created to shed light on gendered workplace interactions, but it has since been applied to romantic and other kinds of relationships. Is this expanded use of the term justified? Ellie's research suggests that the concept of hermeneutic labor may better explain asymmetries of power in romantic relationships between men and women. Hermeneutic labor imbalances are produced by men's inability to name and interpret their feelings and by the societal expectation that women manage their own emotions and those of their male partners simultaneously. How does Ellie's research on hermeneutic labor shift our perspective on the issue of gender in emotional work?Works DiscussedEllie Anderson, “Hermeneutic Labor: The Gendered Burden of Interpretation in Intimate Relationships Between Women and Men”Arlie Russell Hochschild, The Managed Heartbell hooks, The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and LoveJudith Farr Tormey, "Exploitation, Oppression and Self-Sacrifice"Ronald Levant, “Desperately seeking language: Understanding, assessing, and treating normative male alexithymia”Olúfẹ́mi Táíwò, “Stoicism (as Emotional Compression) Is Emotional Labor”Kathi Weeks, "Hours for What We Will: Work, Family, and the Movement for Shorter Hours”Patreon | patreon.com/overthinkpodcast Website | overthinkpodcast.comInstagram & Twitter | @overthink_podEmail | Dearoverthink@gmail.comYouTube | Overthink podcastSupport the show
