When you stop trying to force the Bible to be something its not--static, perspicacious, certain, absolute--then you're free to revel in what it is: living, breathing, confounding, surprising, and yes, perhaps even magic.

Be warned. In Scripture, and in life, the road to deliverance nearly always takes a detour. Rarely do the people of God reach any kind of promised land without a journey or two through the wilderness.

We have on our hands a Bible as complicated and dynamic as our relationship with God, one that reads less like divine monologue and more like an intimate conversation.

Inspiration is not about some disembodied ethereal voice dictating words or notes to a catatonic host. It's a collaborative process, a holy give-and-take, a partnership between Creator and creator.
