Is Reading the Bible the Fastest Way to Lose Your Faith?

For centuries, the Bible was called "the Good Book," a moral and religious text that guides us into a relationship with God and shows us the right way to live. Today, however, some people argue the Bible is outdated and harmful, with many Christians unaware of some of the odd and disturbing things the Bible says.

How (Not) to Read the Bible tackles big questions like:

  • Does the Bible degrade women?
  • Is the Bible anti-science?
  • How could a loving God command such violence in the Old Testament?
  • Does the Bible endorse slavery?

Bestselling author Dan Kimball guides you step-by-step in how to tackle many of the real questions that people wrestle with when reading the Bible and how to make sense of many of the more difficult and disturbing Bible passages.

Filled with fun stories, insightful information, and responses to popular cultural objections, How (Not) to Read the Bible is a lifeline for anyone—Christians and doubters alike—who are confused or discouraged with questions about the Bible.

Yes, there are puzzling and disturbing Bible passages. . . But there are explanations!

Finally, a book which tackles the strange and crazy sounding bible verses head on. By looking at the bible passages in their context, the author responses to common critics about the bible. At least to me, half of the old testament seemed to consist of random laws, violence, and ultra-conservative out-of-time values (slavery, demeaning women). Dan talks about all of those and more by using concrete example verses and memes as well as establishing some common guidelines (always read a verse in context!). I really hope there will be a second part in which Dan covers even more concrete examples (e.g. Exodus 34;6ff) :-)
