Andrew Ollerton is a theologian and pastor who works with the Bible Society and developed The Bible Course. His latest publication is ‘God’s Book: An Honest Look at the Bible's 7 Toughest Topics’. A significant rise in Bible sales has been reported in the past year… as people apparently seek re-enchantment through the story of Scripture, what sort of questions will they encounter along the way? And can Andrew help to make sense of them? He joins Belle and Justin to re-enchant... the Bible’s embarassing bits.
