Do you have tough questions about the Bible? (Who doesn’t?) Bible scholar Peter Enns is well known for talking honestly and insightfully about the doubts, problems, and questions that occur to many readers of the Bible as they explore Scripture. His latest book, The Bible Tells Me So: Why Defending Scripture Has Made Us Unable to Read It (HarperOne, 2014) addresses many of those issues, and argues that many of the “problems” we encounter in the Bible are the result of bad assumptions about how to read it.

Let it not be said that Enns is afraid of questions: this afternoon, he’s participating in an “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) thread in the Christianity subsection of Reddit. That means Enns will be responding to questions from the internet as they roll in. The AMA is here and has just now started (although you can certainly visit it after it wraps up to read the complete discussion). So if you’ve ever wanted to stump a Bible scholar, break out those tough questions about Bible interpretation, and ask away!

We’ve featured Enns here on the Bible Gateway blog a few times in the past—last year, he participated in our “Inerrancy Debate” roundtable discussion. His contribution to the roundtable will give you a sense of his approach to reading and understanding Scripture.
