Pursued by God and a Turkish Carpet Salesman

What this episode covers

Wendy and I were once in Istanbul. We were pursued aggressively by a Turkish carpet salesman who was desperate to make a sale, given their terrible economy. We look at Psalm 23, traditionally used at funerals and memorial services by Christians. But this Psalm is not about saying goodbye to a loved one. We look at what Psalm 23 is truly about - and why it reminds us of this relentless carpet salesman.
