Since the Bible Tales newsletter began in 2016, we have published 74 micro-tales, 23 episodes of our serial on Paul and approximately 130 varied blog posts including resources such as family
trees, timelines and harmonies of related passages. After distributing a newsletter, we wait to see if anyone responds with corrections or comments and, after a while, publish the article
on the Bible Tales blog, often with various improvements. As a result, you may find it worthwhile reading the published blog post even if you read the original newsletter article. Sometimes they can also take advantage of being a webpage rather than an email. Recently, we have been catching up on publishing some of these articles from almost a year ago. These are the newly available articles: The Bible passages which refer to events surrounding Paul/Saul’s
conversion by Jesus on the road to Damascus are: The Bible passages which record the prophecies are: Recently, my oldest daughter suggested that it might be good to write an article on some of the unconventional, unexpected or peculiar things that God told people in the Bible to do. The family tree for each of these Bible heroes is included, and you can also request the PowerPoint and PDF files of each to be sent to you. The narrative of the
New Testament is dominated by two people: Jesus of Nazareth and Paul of Tarsus. The earthly life and preaching of Jesus fills the gospels, while the faith he fathered drives the rest of the New Testament, with Paul as the main advocate for that faith. How did Paul’s background prepare him for that crusade? The book
of Samuel tells us of David’s background as the youngest of eight sons and shepherd of the family’s flock – brave enough to defend the flock, even fighting lions and bears to protect the sheep.
