The Word Made Human

What’s This Podcast
About?

Welcome to The Sacred Humanist. In this series of commentaries on the Judeo Christian scripture, we explore the ancient texts of the Bible—not as divine revelations, but as deeply human writings shaped by struggle, hope, fear, and imagination. The purpose of these commentaries is to uncover the human wisdom woven into ancient scripture—wisdom born not of divine decree, but of lived experience, moral struggle, and the timeless pursuit of a better world. These stories were crafted by people much like us, wrestling with the same questions we still ask: How should we live? How do we build a just society? And what meaning can we make in a fragile world? Some of the books we explore still hold profound meaning for our lives today, others can be discarded entirely as relics of a harsher past, and many fall somewhere in between—inviting us to sift through them thoughtfully, keeping what enlightens and letting go of what no longer serves. This commentary doesn’t preach answers from above—it listens for wisdom from within. thesacredhumanist.substack.com
