Welcome 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 #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.   Enjoy!

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.  What would it look like if Jesus was born today in one of our major cities? What might it feel like? Can changing the context of a very familiar story help us see something that we might have missed in the birth story? Check it out. This is another oldie but goody in our repertoire. Gather the family around the computer or smartphone listen and then discuss. You may be surprised what people will say. Enjoy A Modern Parable

It has been rewritten and put under a new name, but the power of the gospel story should still resonate. What difference does God’s love for the unlovable really mean to real people living in the real world? You’sll see. Enjoy Farrah. Pass it on to someone this Christmas season.    Enjoy!

It has been favorably compared with Chronicles of Narnia. It is a fun and adventurous story but it also contains wonderful life-changing spiritual truth, or spiritual formation for children that age—and for any adult who might read it.  In The Garden Tale, a dicey corporation GKP has developed a powerful social media device and strategy that has captured the attention of the entire country. Girls, boys, men, and women are addicted to the thing. But who can stop them?  A task force headed by a programmer teen girl, Hui is having a conversation with one of the programmers at GKP, Marv, who is also concerned about the power of the algorithm.  The idea behind my book, The Garden Tale is to offer 10-15 year olds an explanation of the dangers of social media in 10-15 year old language.  Currently some project that 2 out of 3 tweens and teens are technically a
