VFTB 174: Noah

LUCKY THING Noah was far more merciful than God or none of us would be here.That's just one of the conclusions one could take away from the just-released motion picture starring Russell Crowe and Anthony Hopkins.We discuss Noah with award-winning screenwriter Brian Godawa, creator of the Chronicles of the Nephilim series (and the first novel in the series, Noah Primeval) and author of the new book When Giants Were Upon the Earth: The Watchers, the Nephilim, and the Biblical Cosmic War of the Seed.  This is a fascinating book, the appendices to the Chronicles of the Nephilim novels collected in one release, the theological foundation on which Brian built the story arc of the series.We learn what Brian thinks of Noah the movie, his take on director Darren Aronofsky's approach to the story, and why Christians should lose the cartoon image of Noah we learned in Sunday School.Derek and Sharon Gilbert will be at the Prophecy in the News Pikes Peak Prophecy Summit July 25-27, 2014 at the Marriott Hotel in Colorado Springs.  Watch for information here.Please join the discussion at the PID Radio Cafe, visit the VFTB Facebook page, and check out the great Christian podcasters at the Revelations Radio Network.Download a smaller, lower-fidelity version of the mp3 of this show by clicking here.
