Buck and Laura Thompson: Growing Biblical Literacy One Book at a Time | Steeple People Podcast
Welcome back to Steeple People! Hosts Amy Jo Gerardier and Michelle Dyer are kicking off season two with a couple whose story starts with a simple, honest question: What if the Bible is actually true?
Buck and Laura Thompson moved to Brentwood, Tennessee, 11 years ago from the Philadelphia suburbs, looking for a community where their faith, their kids’ schools, and their everyday life could all connect. But before that move, Laura made a quiet decision that changed everything — she gave herself a year to really read and understand Scripture. What she found didn’t just settle her own questions; it reshaped how she parented and loved her family, and it eventually led Buck to open a Bible of his own for the first time.
That journey planted the seed for Line by Line, the Thompsons’ Bible-teaching ministry that walks through Scripture one book at a time. In this episode, Buck and Laura share how a class project turned into a passion for biblical literacy, and why they believe God’s Word is worthy of anyone’s whole trust.
Share it with someone who wants to read their Bible but isn’t sure where to start.
