I had a conversation last week with an old friend, Scott Lencke, about what I have been calling a “narrative-historical” approach to the reading of the Bible and of the New Testament in particular. Scott has made it available on his new podcast, or you can watch the whole thing on YouTube.

He says that the approach will be a “great challenge to our typical evangelical approach, but one I think is worth chewing over in order to better read the Bible.” Agreed, but it may be less of a challenge here in the UK than in other parts of the English-speaking evangelical world.
