“The Bible assumes that we do not know instinctively how to talk with God but rather need some help with knowing how to do so. The Psalter is the Bible’s book of praise and prayer to provide the answer to those questions and meet that need. It is given to us so that we can “adapt and adjust our minds and feelings so that they are in accord with the sense of the psalms.”Eugene Peterson thus comments that the Psalms are where Christians have always learned to pray—till our age!”

“The Bible became the book of books, but it is not one document. It is a mystical library of interwoven texts by unknown authors who wrote and edited at different times with widely divergent aims. This sacred work of so many epochs and so many hands contains some facts of provable history, some stories of unprovable myth, some poetry of soaring beauty, and many passages of unintelligible, perhaps coded, perhaps simply mistranslated, mystery. Most of it is written not to recount events but to promote a higher truth—the relationship of one people and their God.”

“The Bible cautions against listening to or following the counsel of liars and wicked individuals, as it can lead to corruption, deception, and spiritual darkness. Surrounding ourselves with such influences can compromise our commitment to God's truth and righteousness, and even enable sinful behavior. Passages like Psalm 1:1, Proverbs 1:10-19, and 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 warn us to be discerning and avoid the influence of those who lead others astray. Instead, we should seek godly counsel and surround ourselves with people who uphold truth and righteousness, holding each other accountable for our actions and staying committed to God's ways.”

“The Bible contains legendary, historical, and ethical contents. It is quite possible to consider them separately, and one doesn't have to accept the legends in order to get the ethics. Fundamentalists make a grave mistake to insist on the letter of the writings, because they drive away many who can't swallow the Adam-and-Eve bit.”
