9: Jessica Hooten Wilson: Reading for the Love of God, Fiction for the Sake of Truth
<p>Dr. Jessica Hooten Wilson has published several books (most of which are *about* books) including The Scandal of Holiness—winner of Christianity Today's 2022 Book Awards Award of Merit—and the forthcoming Reading for the Love of God, out in March of 2023. On today's episode, our conversation sits at the intersection of literature and theology. Can literature help us in the pursuit of holiness? Does it increase our empathy and humility and can it help make us more present in God's world and the people around us? Jessica says yes.

8: Andy Abernethy: Savoring Scripture, Pursuing Justice
<p>Dr. Andrew Abernethy is the author of several books, including Savoring Scripture and The Book of Isaiah & God's Kingdom. On today's show, we talk about utilizing concepts from the academic study of Scripture without losing the joys of a transformational reading aimed at the heart. We also discuss issues of justice, reading the Bible as a work of literature, how the Scriptures shaped Israel's waiting for the Messiah, and The Chosen. There was also some mutual admiration for Charlie Dates expressed. As Professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College, Andy is deeply involved in shaping readers who not only study the Word, but *enjoy* it.
