Join host Fiona Stewart alongside Jen Robertson and Neil Glover as they read and speak the words of the Bible together in 2020.
In this episode, Jen, Neil and Fiona talk about the latest section of Bible 2020 readings, focussing on the character of God as he reveals himself in his word.
How much is our view of God influenced by our culture or Greek mythology? How does God describe himself? And do we misunderstand Jesus? Is the God of the Old Testament the same as the God of the New Testament? And for those of us living in 21st century Scotland, how does God choose to reveal himself in a context where Christianity is a minority faith?
Meanwhile, there are some recommendations of how to read more deeply on the subject, we’re introduced to a man called Marcion, and we learn what Jen keeps in her downstairs toilet.

Does it make a difference to read Scripture out loud? What do we learn about God when we realise that nothing happens without a word being spoken, and how do these verses influence our view of creation, environmentalism and God’s relationship with human beings? And what are we going to do about it?
