Companions Season 3: Episode 2 - It's not a bug, it's a feature....

Jan 8, 2026    Pastor Angelo Sanchez, Pastor Becca Detterman

What do we do when Scripture feels confusing, uncomfortable, or even troubling? In this episode of Companions, Pastors Angelo and Becca reflect on the early chapters of Genesis and explore why the Bible’s complexity isn’t a flaw—it’s part of how Scripture forms us. From genealogies and altars to disturbing stories and honest questions, they talk about what we bring with us when we read, why there’s no such thing as a neutral reader, and how God meets us even in the messiness of the text. Along the way, Becca introduces the idea of a hermeneutical self-inventory, offering a helpful tool for reading the Bible with greater awareness, humility, and hope.
