The Pour Over Scripture Podcast is a new podcast from pastor and Bible teacher, Jon Jorgenson. This show is a safe space for coffee snobs and Bible nerds to wrestle with the confusing, frustrating, ancient, and beautiful world of the Bible. By exposing modern misuses and abuses of this sacred text, Jon will seek to lead listeners toward a more authentic, life-giving reading of the Old and New Testament.
How we view the Bible will determine how we read the Bible? In today's episode, Jon discusses how the Bible is not a religious rulebook, but a deep source of wisdom.
