In this episode, we explore the two flood stories woven into Genesis, the Yahwist and the Priestly, and what they reveal about the human longing for renewal. Rather than tales of divine wrath, these ancient myths become windows into our deepest hope: that even after collapse, whether personal, familial, or societal, a fresh beginning is possible. This reading offers a secular humanist reflection on the flood as a story not of destruction, but of the enduring power of reset.
