The Love’s Playbook Podcast The Bible as the Story of an All-good God
Don’t have time to read the Bible? Can’t understand it? Here it is written as a story for adults that reads like a novel. The story of an all-good God. Listen and fall in love. My version has characters who are fleshed out with carefully researched backstory because they were people like us. I wanted to slow the stories down, make them come to life with characters you can relate to. People like you--people you can identify with and remember. AND the focus is on a good God, not a scary or angry one. The men who wrote the Bible wanted a strong warrior God, and to be sure They are! (One position--three beings who fill it.) But there is such a difference between Their preferred will and Their allowed will. Love and freedom are Their greatest values. Episode 1 is my fantasy of Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 with Revelation 12-–the universe before us. Listen to Abba, Adonai and Ruach converse and see how evil could enter a perfect world—a perfect creation!

God’s goodness and Paul’s freedom really show up in the rest of his life. Here is his first two hearings before governors and kings. Notice how Ruach uses these “opportunities” to reach men of position with the truth about Jesus, no matter whether they are insiders or outsiders.

This is a conversation on the book of James chapters 2-5 written by Jesus’ brother. It was written for Jewish converts as well as Gentiles to show that there really is no fight between Law and Grace. And of course our discussion ends up being about God’s crazy freedom. We are so free it’s scary!

I ‘m publishing this one early because I just realized I published chapter 11 last night instead of 10. So if I waited until next week, you’d be confused. Listen to this one first and it will make more sense. Sorry. I was worried about getting behind and so I got ahead of myself instead😆❗️
