About this listen
Millions of people around the world look to the Bible as a source of encouragement and faith formation, a reminder that God is love and is in control, and a guide to living one's life the way God desires. But this treasured book has also been misused and manipulated by many, placed on a pedestal of untouchability, and protected from questioning and honest engagement. In Permission Granted, Jennifer Grace Bird encourages people of faith to explore the texts on their own, freed from long-held myths and misconceptions; experience the Bible anew; and appreciate this holy book for what it is - not what we think it should be.
With the sensitivity of one who has discovered this freedom herself, Bird invites listeners to engage what the Bible really says about 12 key issues, including sin, sex, and the role of women.
