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 ~
