In our first-ever double Zach episode, pastor Zach Lambert stops by to talk about the ideal spelling of his name, as well as his new book Better Ways to Read the Bible: Transforming a Weapon of Harm Into a Tool of Healing. We talk about the various lenses through which people approach the text, and the challenge of doing so with the lens of the original intended audience.
