Episode notes
Did you know one of the most influential figures in American fundamentalism was a con artist who ditched his family, did time in jail, and then got rich selling a study Bible?
In this episode, I get personal—sharing about my own years in Bible college and how I was shaped by a system built on shaky foundations. I expose the scandal behind the Scofield Study Bible, a book that quietly molded the curriculum of countless Christian colleges through its connection to C. I. Scofield. And I lay out five reasons why I’m deliberately trying not to be a fundamentalist anymore.
