Christians Need to Understand Poetry
See a great post from Ros here.
As I write I cannot remember if I ever posted on this. I know that I meant to, and have had a fairly similar rant to a number of (presumably to some extent) willing victims here at Oak Hill. I'm not even sure who I nicked the original thought off - Ros or DF. Oh well!
There's also a case that Christians need to understand narratives too, and other things. Many many Christians (imho) just need to know how to read better!

Quite right, Andrew. Let me highly recommend Robert Alter 'The Pleasures of Reading' which will help anyone who thinks they may be lacking in this area.
