Child sacrifice, war brides, and bear attacks: what are we to make of the Old Testament?

  • Summary

  • Stories that shock us. Laws that unsettle us. Behavior that baffles us. Richard Dawkins once referred to the God of the Old Testament as “arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction.” Is Dawkins’ right in his verdict? And if not, how can we read the Old Testament in a way that helps us to make sense not only of the more troubling texts, but of the character of God? In this special episode of Ask Away, we’re featuring a conversation on this topic between Jo and our longtime friend, Dan Paterson, which was originally hosted on his Questioning Christianity podcast.
