One of the most frequent questions we get is, “How do I learn to study the Bible in context on my own?” That’s exactly the question we want people asking! And that’s why we created a free e-book called The #1 Mistake Most Everyone Makes Reading the Bible. In it, we unpack the 6 lenses of context: historical, cultural, geographical, visual, linguistic, and literary. This brand-new mini-series, Lenses of Context, is an illustrated version of our e-book (with some exciting additions) and is thus done in conjunction with our e-book. In the series, we examine each lens of context, exploring specific examples (different from those in the e-book), and then offering you tools and techniques to enhance your study of the Scriptures.

Lenses of Context Pt 1
Historical
History can unlock parts of Scripture we would otherwise miss. Jesus’s words to Sardis show why asking what was happening then can deepen what we see now.
