En fortælling, som jeg har skrevet, om hvordan den samaritansk kvindes liv kunne have set ud. Jeg har flettet Joh. 4:3-30 sammen med en fiktiv beretning om Ziporra, den samaritansk kvinde, og Jesu møde med hende. Du kan høre hele prædikenen i det sidste afsnit af podcasten!

This episode is in Danish. Dette afsnit er på dansk. Jeg har skrevet en fiktiv baggrundshistorie for at belyse den samaritanske kvindes kontekst. Jeg har givet hende et navn, Zippora (også Moses' Midiansk kones navn). I min oplæsning bliver fortællingen flettet sammen med Joh 4: 3-30. I skal advares, at der er et sensitivt emne i fortællingen. Kvinden er nemlig fænget i et misbrugsforhold.

What does it mean when we pray, "you who art in heaven?" The music is a cover of "When God Ran," by Phillips, Craig & Dean.

The music in this episode is a classical arrangement of the Lord's Prayer that I learned a decade ago with my Papa. A retired pastor and piano teacher, Papa would accompany me as I sang various classical worship pieces at an old folks home and at church. The devotion is about what it means to call God our Father, as in the prayer. I intend on doing a series of devotions based on the Lord's prayer, so this is the first of those!

A short intro about who I am and what the vision for this podcast is!

This is a shortened version of episode 1, where I only tell the story of Simon the Leper. I received feedback that it would be good to tell the two stories separately, so I've done that now! The music you hear me playing on the piano is Adagio from Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. If you're interested in hearing more of my piano music, check out the following link!

What kind of man was Jesus? Why does a good God allow us to suffer? Do healing miracles happen today? What does it mean to be healed or saved? What does Christianity have to say about immigration and race? You've probably heard that Christians strive to love God and their neighbour, but did you know that the Bible teaches us just as forcefully to love the foreigner?

These are some of the topics I address in this narrative, testimonial and thematic message! In this sermon, I retell two stories from the Gospel of Matthew. The narrative I have written is fictional, but the historical and living words of scripture have been grafted into the storyline. Like in The Chosen, I attempt to imagine what it might have been like to be "Simon the Leper" or "Julius the Centurion."

I play the piano intros myself. In this episode, the piece is Adagio from Beethoven's Grande Sonate Pathétique. Feedback of any kind is welcome. Thanks for listening in and enjoy!
