- Religion & Spirituality
In this week's pod, Josh and Laura discuss the flood narrative in Genesis 6–9. Here are some highlights: (1) this section of Genesis is not meant to be read as a historical reporting of real events, (2) other cultures have their own flood stories, some of which predate Genesis, (3) the similarities (and differences) between Genesis and other ancient Near Eastern flood stories are striking, and (4) should we go ahead and put a moratorium on graphic, violent Old Testament stories for kids ministry.
