Like Genesis telling us the world was made in seven days, or that there was a flood that covered the whole earth, or that Jonah survived in the belly of a whale for three days?</p><p>And what about contradictions within the Bible? Why do some of the Gospel writers recount events differently? Do these discrepancies undermine the reliability of the Bible?</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we continue our discussion of common questions about the Bible.</p><p><br></p><p>This podcast relies 100% on the generosity of listeners.
