In this bonus episode, W. Scott McAndless has a wide-ranging and very important discussion about the story told in Genesis 45:1-47:12 with Micah Belong the Wise Old Llama Enby, host of "The Word in Black and Red." I'm pleased to be able to share this with my followers.

What does Joseph's weeping have to teach us about the redemptive process? How can we reimagine our family dynamics in ways that bring healing? And how can you scam your boss even better?

Note: Some explicit language.

Abram makes his way down to Egypt to survive a famine and decides to use his smoking-hot wife to make himself a fortune!

As far as we can tell, the original manuscript of the Gospel of Mark ended strangely and abruptly at chapter 16, verse 8.
This is the story of how the author (lets call him Mark) decided to end his gospel in what seems like such a surprising way to us.
Based on Mark 16:1-8 with reference to Mark 3:20-35, Mark 15:6-15 and 1 Corinthians 15:5-7.

The Gospel of Mark includes an odd little incident, mentioned in none of the other gospels, in which Jesus is arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Today's episode is a narrative exploration of the story of the young man who ran away naked in the garden.
Based on Mark 14:51-52.

In this extra special episode, W. Scott engages in a wide-range discussion about the amazing story of Tamar with the good folks at "The Word in Black and Red." Sex, prostitution, masturbation, this discussion touches on all of it!
And, yes, the language is explicit and sometimes crude so be advised!
