the Bible is a pretty weird book

I’ve been reading the Bible more recently, and I’ll be honest — it’s way stranger than I was ever taught growing up.
People eating children. Dead boys being kissed. Talking donkeys. Fire falling from the sky. Somehow that sounds less weird than we pretend it is.
In this video, I talk about:
What shocked me while reading 2 Kings
Why applying modern morality to the ancient Near East doesn’t work
How Christian school leaves out a lot of the Bible
Why the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) is dense, strange, and its own world
How Jesus’ miracles reference earlier Jewish stories that rarely get explained
This isn’t a sermon. It’s not an argument. I’m just someone enjoying the Bible for what it is — a strange, layered, uncomfortable, fascinating book that shaped Western civilization.
You don’t have to believe in God to find it interesting.
You just have to be willing to sit with the weirdness.
Like, subscribe, and stick around if you enjoy thoughtful chaos.
