When I first started blogging, one of my inspirations was David Ker, better known as Lingamish. Now, David has published many of his blog posts as a (free) e-book. The blurb says:
“You may have hopes that you can open your Bible and get a quick dose of spiritual wisdom but the Bible wasn’t written to you.” David Ker takes a controversial look at how we shouldn’t but often do read the Bible. Filled with humor and real life examples from a Bible translator living in Africa, this book is a challenge to conventional approaches to interpreting the Bible.
And I’m sure that David wrote this, so it must be true! Don’t take my word for it, download the book here.
