Does accepting the doctrine of biblical inspiration necessitate
belief in biblical inerrancy? The Bible has always functioned
authoritatively in the life of the church, but what exactly should
that mean? Must it mean the Bible is without error in all
historical details and ethical teachings? What should thoughtful
Christians do with texts that propose God is pleased by human
sacrifice or that God commanded Israel to commit acts of genocide?
What about texts that contain historical errors or predictions that
have gone unfulfilled long beyond their expiration dates? In The
Human Faces of God, Thom Stark moves beyond notions of inerrancy in
order to confront such problematic texts and open up a conversation
about new ways they can be used in service of the church and its
moral witness today. Readers looking for an academically informed
yet accessible discussion of the Bible's thorniest texts will find
a thought-provoking and indispensible resource in The Human Faces
of God.
