Sermon: HGTV, The Bible, and Baptism
Scripture: Romans 6:1-8
Speaker: Rev. Dan Wunderlich
Description: If you’ve ever watched a home renovation show like Fixer Upper or Home Town, you are familiar with the concept of design patterns. Colors, textures, themes, and sometimes even literal patterns run through the house in big and small ways to tie everything together. The same technique is used by the biblical authors that, when recognized, adds a layer of depth and meaning.
Sermon Series: Learning to Read the Bible
Even if we accept that the Bible is not a textbook or moral instruction manual, we can still desire more clarity. For example, why are so many details in some of the stories either vague or missing completely? It turns out that this isn’t a mistake or just some cultural quirk of ancient literature, but it is an intentional tool of the biblical authors.
