What does it mean when Christians say the Bible is "inspired" by God? Did the biblical authors know they were writing Scripture?

In Part 1 of this series on the history of the Bible, we explore the doctrine of inspiration, how God worked through human authors, and why Christians can have confidence that Scripture is truly God's Word.

Key Scriptures: 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:20–21, Acts 27:15, 1 Timothy 5:18, 2 Peter 3:15–16, Colossians 4:16, 1 Thessalonians 5:27
