The Bible Through a Child's Eyes

Today, Lily and I compare the similarities and differences in how the different gospels tell the story of Jesus' baptism and temptation.

Last month, we looked at the Jesus birth story in Matthew. This week, we're looking at Luke's version, and seeing how it does or does not fit!

We decided to skip to the exciting part of the Bible, and take a look at the nativity story!

We're back!Lily and I read through the final chapters of Genesis, and learn that Joseph (of technicolour dreamcoat fame) was not the hero that he's usually portrayed as...

Today we're a bit disjointed as we read the chapters in the wrong order and accidentally stopped the recording at one point.Also...sad announcement at the end.tl;dr - Missus Rhino died of a stroke last week, so we are going on hiatus. Donations to Project Share in her honour are greatly appreciated: http://vicedrhino.com/donate

I'm so sorry. So very very sorry. There will be singing in this one. It's Joseph. I can't not.

Today, we hear about how Jacob's sons deal with their sister being raped...and we learn that Jacob's name is no longer Jacob. Twice. Also god cheats at wrestling.

Today, Laban tricks Jacob, who retaliates by tricking Laban, who retaliates by tricking Jacob...etc.

Jacob steals Esau's blessing, then flees to Laban's house, marries both his cousins, and has a *bunch* of babies.

Today, we name an unnamed bible Character, and watch as he gets a wife for Isaac.Then Isaac does something with her that sounds eerily familiar...
