16 Ways Progressive Christians Interpret the Bible

I especially like 6, 9, and 15.
6. We realize that there is no “objective, one, right way” to interpret a passage – and we recognize that there is no reading of any text – including the Bible – that doesn’t involve interpretation.

9. We seek to read passages in context – within their chapter, within their book, within their genre, and within the over-arching thrust of the Bible.
15. We do as much of the above as we can with fellow Christians in community with others. We avoid doing it solely as a solo endeavor. (We also tend to be open to doing this in community with Jews and Muslims, as fellow “people of the Book” whose insights are often invaluable)
