To write and to title a book Understanding the Bible is a rather far-reaching claim, yet that is just what John Buehrens has done. John received his M.Div from Harvard in 1973 and went on to serve several congregations before he was elected President of the UUA in 1993. If he was bold enough to attempt to explain the Bible to skeptics, seekers and religious liberals, I wanted to read it. I invited members of the congregation along for company.
