The Blue Parakeet, 2nd Edition: Rethinking How You Read the Bible

Parakeets make delightful pets. We cage them or clip their wings to keep them where we want them. Scot Mc Knight contends that many, conservatives and liberals alike, attempt the same thing with the Bible. We all try to tame it. Mc Knight's The Blue Parakeet calls Christians to stop taming the Bible and to let it speak anew to our heart.

Mc Knight challenges us to rethink how to read the Bible, not just to puzzle it together into some systematic belief but to see it as a Story that we're summoned to enter and to carry forward in our day.
