The Return of Oral Hermeneutics

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Whatever we want to call walking through God’s great book with adults with limited formal education or any adult who prefers a non-reading experience, we must find a learning approach that works for this population—the majority of those on our planet. Like Steffen and Bjoraker, I have lived through the failure of textual hermeneutics with my own national partners. Something must change in the way Westerners attempt to do Bible study with the rest of the world—especially with our non-reading friends. I pray and believe this resource and others sure to follow will help along those lines.”
