LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

I am once again honored to have recently interviewed Dr. Scott Hahn. We discussed the book he wrote with his coauthor Dr. Benjamin Wiker titled “The Decline And Fall Of Sacred Scripture: How The Bible Became A secular Book”.

History And The Bible

In this interview we discuss the inspiration behind the book and many of the historical circumstances that have led to many politicizing and secularizing the Bible. Check out the book at https://stpaulcenter.com/product/the-decline-and-fall-of-sacred-scripture-how-the-bible-became-a-secular-book/. Learn more about the Saint Paul Center and their many resources for learning more about scripture at www.stpaulcenter.com.
