Vagabond Diaries #24: Huldah
16/03/2025 Duration: 18minToday’s Vagabond Diary, is another excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups, and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Huldah. Few people remember her name or role, but it was off the charts important to Israel and us today equally. Without her, Judah’s valuable societal and religious revival in the 7th century BCE would have been a confusing mess, perhaps even a non-starter. How can I say this more emphatically? Huldah provided the missing voice of God. My point, Huldah was a true hero and model for Jews and Christians of all times, but more to the point, an enough-heroine for women of all times. To quote William E. Phipps, “A woman was the first to declare Scripture holy.” Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant. &nbs

Vagabond Diaries #23: Rebekah
09/03/2025 Duration: 21minToday’s Vagabond Diary, is another excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Rebekah. Why is she included in this book on overlooked, misunderstood, and unappreciated women in the Old Testament? She has hardly been overlooked. Few women are more recognizable by any Christian than her. Most of us have heard about the romantic courtship and marriage to Isaac, an ancient Hallmark movie. It is the longest chapter in Genesis. But then Isaac and Rebekah’s story takes a sharp and ugly turn when she conspires to scam and defraud 132-year-old Isaac for an official blessing for her favorite son, Jacob, whose name ironically means deceiver. For that reason, many modern Christians hesitate to honor her and the part she plays in the stor

Vagabond Diaries #22: Tamar
02/03/2025 Duration: 23minToday’s Vagabond Diary, is an excerpt from my recently published book for women, women’s groups and book clubs Dance Daughters of the Most High! Book 2. As you may have heard, it looks at seven largely underappreciated, misunderstood, and overlooked women in the Old Testament. This lady certainly fits those categories. Meet Tamar. This woman’s story is not widely publicized in Christian circles. There are certain reasons, but are they good ones? You certainly won’t hear about her in children’s church or on ‘visitation’ Sunday. Honestly, it is a bit of an embarrassment to modern Christians. It feels more like modern reality TV than the high bar for behavior we expect in the lives of Biblical characters, especially the Jewish patriarchs. To make a long story short, Judah slept with his daughter-in-law Tamar, the same Judah who was the famous forefather of King David and Jesus. Then, in the understatement of the ages, he declares, “She is

Vagabond Diaries #20: Beaver
16/02/2025 Duration: 07minWelcome to our new God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant series and format. We are calling the series Vagabond Diaries. We want it to be fun, informative, and life-changing—something that you would find valuable to pass on to others and laugh and cry together a bit. Instead of dealing with biblical topics from a scholarly perspective, we are going to shift to telling biblical stories in a new way, insightful ways—we hope--that are both foundationally biblical, relevant, and entertaining. This week we are going to go all the way back to the 1960s, black and white TV for a show for children. Do you remember Leave it to Beaver? Leave It to Beaver is an American television sitcom that follows the misadventures of a suburban boy, Beaver, his family and his friends. It ran in B&W from 1957 to 1963. You can still watch it on YouTube. Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant. Enjoy! Love feedback, Bill@gospel-app.com. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, LIK

Vagabond Diaries #19: Bernard
09/02/2025 Duration: 17minVagabond Diaries #18: Bernard Vagabond Diaries Welcome Back to our new Gospel Rant series called Vagabond Diaries. We are finding fun and creative ways to proclaim the love of God for the unlovable, the unloved, and the unlovely. To accomplish that, we will use every trick in the book: story, drama, satire, comedy, mystery, and even a fun visit to a counselor’s couch to help unpack some biblical truth and application. You’ll see what I mean. This week, I want to present to you an allegory, a Christian allegory, or more to the point an allegory of Jesus. It's a fresh approach to the singular gospel of Jesus, enjoy.
