Peter Enns is the Abram S. Clemens professor of Biblical Studies at Eastern University in St. Davids, PA. In his new book, "The Bible Tells Me So: Why Defending Scripture Has Made Us Unable to Read It," Enns argues that following the Bible blindly and lining it up to our expectations is not an act of piety but a thinly masked fear of uncertainty that serves as a warning sign that we do not trust God at all. Peter joins Eric to talk about the book, the Book and his own journey of faith. We cover the news of the week from Washington to Rome to St. Louis and Eric offers a reflection on the story of Bartimaeus from the Gospel of Mark.
