    Vagabond Diaries #27: Parent Tips From Middle Earth 1

    Welcome to our new God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant series and format,  Vagabond Diaries.  I hope that this is a special treat for you. I am in the process of preparing a new workshop for Christian parents called Parent Tips from Middle Earth. I am unpacking the young readers' books of CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien in particular to find things that could help parents in this day and age. You may be surprised how insightful they were. I have spoken and written about it often, but now I am shaping an on-line course. I need feedback from you. Bill@gospel-app.com.  We will get into neuroscience and attachment theory, but for the most part it is unadulterated gospel through the lenses of these two greats. I am convinced that if they were here in your living room, parents, today, they would be pleading with you to get your kids to read more good books. But what are ‘good’ books? I am going to tell you. For the next three Gospel Rants we will look at the first three of seven lessons, Parent Tips from Middle Earth.  In this first show, I will talk about how to shape a teenage gospel.

    Vagabond Diaries #24: Huldah

    Today’s Vagabond Diary, is another excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups, and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Huldah. Few people remember her name or role, but it was off the charts important to Israel and us today equally.  Without her, Judah’s valuable societal and religious revival in the 7th century BCE would have been a confusing mess, perhaps even a non-starter. How can I say this more emphatically? Huldah provided the missing voice of God.  My point, Huldah was a true hero and model for Jews and Christians of all times, but more to the point, an enough-heroine for women of all times. To quote William E. Phipps, “A woman was the first to declare Scripture holy.”   Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant.   Enjoy! Love feedback, Bill@gospel-app.com.

    Vagabond Diaries #23: Rebekah

    Today’s Vagabond Diary, is another excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Rebekah.  Why is she included in this book on overlooked, misunderstood, and unappreciated women in the Old Testament? She has hardly been overlooked. Few women are more recognizable by any Christian than her. Most of us have heard about the romantic courtship and marriage to Isaac, an ancient Hallmark movie. It is the longest chapter in Genesis.  But then Isaac and Rebekah’s story takes a sharp and ugly turn when she conspires to scam and defraud 132-year-old Isaac for an official blessing for her favorite son, Jacob, whose name ironically means deceiver.  For that reason, many modern Christians hesitate to honor her and the part she plays in the story of God’s redemption of Israel. However, many ancient Jewish scholars would strongly disagree. They have no such qualms about Rebekah. I will explain.  Here’s the question. Was Rebekah a Spirit-kissed daughter of the Most High? Or was she something different altogether? What will we make of this fascinating, capable, mixed-bag, woman and distant progenitor of Jesus Himself?  Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant.  Enjoy!

    Vagabond Diaries #22: Tamar

    Today’s Vagabond Diary, is an excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Tamar. This woman’s story is not widely publicized in Christian circles. There are certain reasons, but are they good ones?  You certainly won’t hear about her in children’s church or on ‘visitation’ Sunday. Honestly, it is a bit of an embarrassment to modern Christians. It feels more like modern reality TV than the high bar for behavior we expect in the lives of Biblical characters, especially the Jewish patriarchs. To make a long story short, Judah slept with his daughter-in-law Tamar, the same Judah who was the famous forefather of King David and Jesus. Then, in the understatement of the ages, he declares,  “She is more righteous than I” (Gen 38:26), How can we look our teenagers in the eyes and explain this one?  Now we see why most modern commentators want to keep the Tamar story at arms or football-field length. And yet, drum roll…Jewish scholars see Tamar in a very different light. To many, she is a hero of the faith. Let’s see what you think. Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant.   Enjoy! Love feedback, Bill@gospel-app.com.

    Vagabond Diaries #20: Beaver

    Welcome to our new God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant series and format. We are calling the series Vagabond Diaries. We want it to be fun, informative, and life-changing—something that you would find valuable to pass on to others and laugh and cry together a bit. Instead of dealing with biblical topics from a scholarly perspective, we are going to shift to telling biblical stories in a new way, insightful ways—we hope--that are both foundationally biblical, relevant, and entertaining. This week we are going to go all the way back to the 1960s, black and white TV for a show for children. Do you remember Leave it to Beaver? Leave It to Beaver is an American television sitcom that follows the misadventures of a suburban boy, Beaver, his family and his friends.  It ran in B&W from 1957 to 1963. You can still watch it on YouTube.  Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant.   Enjoy! Love feedback, Bill@gospel-app.com.
