Back to Basics on Biblical Literacy

In this episode of the Thinking Fellows, Caleb Keith, Scott Keith, Adam Francisco, and Bruce Hillman discuss the growing problem of biblical illiteracy in the church. They talk about why Christians need to know the Bible and understand what they believe, not just pick up bits of theology online. The Fellows discuss the importance of memorizing Scripture, learning the Small Catechism, and teaching children the basics of the Christian faith before expecting them to explain it all. They also consider how families, pastors, and churches can make biblical literacy a lifelong part of Christian education.
