Lenten Posts
At the end of March, Hollywood is coming out with a version of Noah's Ark. You can click here to watch the trailer. But before you go see the movie, I thought it would be good to read or re-read the narrative as it is written. You may want to go right now and re-familiarize yourself with the whole story. You can find it starting in Genesis 6. The story goes through chapter 9.
I invite you to read the all three chapters in one setting. Think about these questions:
1). What as new for you or what surprised you as you read?
2). What detail stuck out for you in a good way? Or in a bad way?
3). What questions do you have?
4). Why in the world do we use this narrative to decorate a baby's nursery!??
Sorry, that last question is more of a personal issue I have.
I look forward to posting on this narrative throughout March and early April...then going to see the movie when I finish. May God's presence guide us and grant us a holy Lent.
Blessings ~
