What happens when divine sorrow gives way to judgment? Join Richard Bewes as he sits down with Anne Graham-Lotz and Paul Blackham to unearth the profound themes of judgment, salvation, and divine grief in the biblical narrative of Genesis. We step into the harrowing era following humanity's fall, where God's sorrow over mankind's wickedness leads to the consequential flood. Anne eloquently delves into the depth of God's grief, revealing how such sorrow springs from divine love, while also drawing thought-provoking parallels to our present world. Together, we tackle the monumental logistics of Noah's Ark, showcasing God's omnipotence in orchestrating the gathering and sustenance of every animal—affirming that salvation is ultimately a divine act.

But the conversation doesn't stop there. We explore the symbolic parallels between Noah's mission and the Christian duty to spread the gospel, emphasizing that what seems impossible is made possible by God's transformative power. Reflecting on Noah's story, we are reminded of the urgency of repentance and preparation for Christ's return, highlighting the unexpected nature of this event and the importance of staying vigilant. Join us as we uncover the profound representation of grace and mercy in this timeless narrative, and how its lessons continue to resonate with an urgency for today's world.
