When our Western glasses (dis)orient us
When we read the Bible, we are sometimes baffled by a behavior or inference because it seems anything but logical. Other times, we feel much more at ease: the teaching presented fits well with our reasoning and so-called Christian values.
In either case, we should be aware of our cultural filters. Otherwise, we expose ourselves to making erroneous interpretations and misapplications of the text.
This book helps us identify our filters and the particular areas we need to pay attention to. Recommended reading for everyone!
