The Word of a Humble God: The Origins, Inspiration, and Interpretation of Scripture

"Karen Keen's The Word of a Humble God: The Origins, Inspiration, and Interpretation of Scripture is perhaps the best comprehensive and accessible introduction to the Bible available today" - Dr. Michael Graves, Wheaton College

"She offers us something more than a historical overview. She makes a striking theological proposal: that God’s choice to speak through these humanly written, edited, and transmitted scriptures is a clue about God’s humility" - Dr. Richard B. Hays, Duke University

"Her proposal for a ‘Divine Humility View’ of Scripture is brilliant in that it provides the building blocks for that which is desperately needed in our time—a Christian theology of difference.” - Dr. Dan Collison, minister and civic leader
