    Why Biblical Inerrancy Matters

    Is biblical inerrancy a modern invention or is it simply reading the Bible on its own terms? In this episode of Food Trucks, Todd and Andrew give a defense for inerrancy, the doctrine that the Bible is true in everything it affirms. They also discuss the differences between inerrancy and infallibility, whether English translations are reliable, and why we can trust we have the right books in our Bibles. Ultimately, they make a case for why believing in inerrancy changes how we read and respond to the Bible.
