Loving the Bible for what it is, not what I want it to be

Loving the Bible for what it is, not what I want it to be

Rachel Held Evans:

Over the past few years, however, I've worked up the courage to re-approach the Bible, this time with a different set of expectations, and I get the feeling that I'm in the early stages of learning how to relate to it the way that an adult child relates to her parents, a way that honors and respects the Bible for what it is, not what I want it to be.
