Happy third anniversary to the Lutheran Ladies’ Lounge podcast!

To commemorate the festive occasion, Sarah, Erin, Bri, and Rachel throw an audio Arch Book party, spotlighting Concordia Publishing House’s classic series of picture book Bible stories as they try their hands at writing their own rhyming Bible narratives.

The only trouble? Nearly all the obvious Bible stories have already been made into Arch Books in the last fifty-plus years (some of them several times over). Listen and laugh as the intrepid Ladies scrape the bottom of the proverbial barrel, seeking out the handful of stories and angles that haven’t yet been adapted into Arch Books.

Listen to Rachel recount the story of “Eutychus and the Really Long Sermon” from Acts 20, and hear Erin reflect on the thankless job of Old Testament prophet in “Truthful, not Nice.” Sarah gets a little messy with her rendition of “Ezekiel and the Bad News for Jerusalem,” and Bri digs deep to tell the not-quite-G-rated tale of “Deborah and Barak, Jael and Sisera.”
