Why should anyone trust the Bible? Not just spiritually—but intellectually, historically, and personally?

In this episode of The Bible Study Podcast, Dena Davidson and Cameron Wells explore one core claim: the Bible can be trusted because it corresponds to reality. From philosophy and history to personal experience and modern skepticism, this conversation tackles the real questions people are asking today—without fear or defensiveness.

Rather than starting with arguments, this episode invites listeners to think clearly, read Scripture carefully, and ask better questions about truth, interpretation, and trust.

In this episode, we discuss:
-What it actually means for something to be “true”
-Why the Bible isn’t a game of telephone
-How Scripture compares to other ancient historical documents
-The difference between truth questions and interpretation questions
-Why science and Scripture don’t have to be enemies
-The Bible’s surprising honesty about its heroes
-How Scripture continues to speak into real life today

This is part one of a two-part conversation on why the Bible can be trusted—and why it’s still worth studying deeply.
