Taking the Bible Figuratively

September 9 - We talked with James Rowe Adams, founder of The Center for Progressive Christianity, about his latest book, From Literal to Literary. He maintains that religious language is primarily figurative by nature. The Bible is full of metaphors that "like knotholes in a fence around a construction site allow the curious to peek into the realm of God."
