There seems to be much confusion and misunderstanding of the Bible and God's role in our 21st Century world. While I certainly don't have all the answers, nobody on this Earth does, I do have a different grasp and appreciation than much of what I am reading and seeing all around me.
Because of that and today's tendency of people to turn away from religion they find unsatisfying or even unwholesome, I am writing down what I have come to learn over the years. I hope that it will give some of the disaffected people a new perspective and allow them to once again turn towards God, seeking His face.
What follows are my chief learnings; a spiritual worldview and some refined understanding. The most fully developed understanding I've come to over recent years.Because of that and today's tendency of people to turn away from religion they find unsatisfying or even unwholesome, I am writing down what I have come to learn over the years.

About the author
David Allen teaches biblical studies modules and New Testament Greek at the Queen's Foundation in Birmingham, and is Academic Dean within the Foundation. He has a particular interest in the letters at the end of the New Testament, notably the Epistle to the Hebrews, and is especially concerned that they get a hearing in the life and practice of the Church. Much of his research concerns the way in which the New Testament uses the Hebrew Scriptures, and the inter-textual reading strategies this generates. He is a regular member of the British Old Testament in the New Seminar.
