58: Untwisting Scriptures. Guest: Rebecca Davis

Author Rebecca Davis joins Amy Fritz to talk about common misinterpretations of Scriptures and how often they harm the most vulnerable.

Amy and Rebecca talk about:

*Bitterness and that pesky “bitter root” verse that may have a more nuanced meaning than you think.

*Is it a “biblical” thing to “believe the best” of others?

*The problem with a common definition of gossip used by Bill Gothard and Dave Ramsey (and many others)
