About the podcast content: *For Further Study.* We’ll often recommend books, articles or other resources to assist Bible study facilitators or anyone interested in digging deeper. Some recommendations target a specific subtopic or issue of interpretation, while most are more broadly related to the biblical book, subject or skill under study. *Matters of Interpretation.* Podcasts are an opportunity to address scripture elements that do not receive full attention in the lesson (due to space constraints and the lesson’s selective focus). Sometimes we’ll simply unpack something from the lesson in greater detail – especially when the nuance or subtleties of a text can make a big difference in how we might read it. In other cases, we’ll identify the problem interpreters face and the solutions they have proposed. We’ll consider the merits and flaws of these approaches, and usually we’ll advocate for one over another. *See for Yourself.* Some lessons are focused not on a selected passage of scripture, but on matters of faith (“Believing”) or tools for interpreting scripture (“Making Sense”). Podcasts provide a space to supplement lessons with concrete examples and illustrations, which are essential for building theological knowledge and developing hermeneutical skills. We’ll often work through examples to reinforce the lessons, but we’ll also identify additional opportunities for study groups to work through examples together.
