Episode notes

Bob Greene: There's some really weird things in Scripture. How is that the pure Word of God? He says people who are trying to deconstruct their faith or see the Bible, like, how dare they do this? Greene: We take a lot of our cultural assumptions and we sort of anachronistically try to understand the Bible with them. "It's a narrative before it is mere instruction," he says.

Called by God to lead his people to the promised land, Moses is heralded as a prophet like no other—one with whom God spoke face to face. But between his murderous past, bursts of anger that ultimately kept him from entering the promised land, and his own record that he was the most humble man to ever live, is he the hero we think? In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland tackle the complicated details of Moses’s life, reflecting on how God works in and through sinners.
