In the Blue Parakeet, McKnight challenges today's Christians to consider how to read the Bible, seeing it as a story that we're summoned to enter and carry forward in our day. He calls his bold new approach to the Bible the "Third Way," a path that walks confidently—and joyfully—between theological extremes.

ENDORSEMENTS

“Blue Parakeet is the book Scot McKnight was born to write. If you are interested in the Bible, or God, or your mind, or where these three might intersect, you will be blessed if you read this book” — John Ortberg, pastor and author, Faith and Doubt

“This is far and away the best, gentlest, most intelligent argument I have ever read for the absolute necessity of embracing the Bible as story. McKnight is in full and persuasive command of both his material and his craft.” — Phyllis Tickle, founding editor of the religion department of Publishers Weekly
