BRIAN BALKE 
The Soul Comes First 
Spiritual Literalism and Christian Theology

In considering the dance between God and Humanity, attempts to interpret the Bible as historical fact have led to unfortunate confusion and dissension. By looking at the Bible as a spiritual history, another interpretation becomes clear: the Bible records the Divine effort to prepare Human Nature for a privileged role in healing the wound of selfishness.
Join us on a journey from Genesis to Revelation, a journey that demonstrates complete consistency with Darwinian evolution, and offers the heartening conclusion that flawed Humanity is not the source of all evil in the World, but actually the best hope for its healing.
