## Resource

When we say Scripture is inspired by God, what do we mean? Did God simply dictate every word, or put the authors in some sort of trance? Did Paul know he was writing Scripture when he first penned his letter to the Romans? Kaitlyn helps us understand what Christians mean when they say the Bible is "God-breathed," and how the Holy Spirit worked through real people with real personalities, purposes, cultures, and quirks. She also explains why God's choice to work through messy human means is not a problem to solve, but a gift to receive. 0:00 - Theme Song 2:58 - How Did the Bible Writers Know About God? 7:55 - The Experience of Being Inspired 12:20 - Sponsor - Blissy - Pure mulberry silk pillow cases—hypoallergenic, naturally cooling, and recommended by dermatologists!
