http://voqonline.com/blog/2015/05/09/noah-and-the-ark/ Wednesday, January 3 Genesis 8-11 The story of God, Noah, and the Ark has been fascinating to the people of God since the oral the tradition of transmitting the faith. The story continues... The story has it all - broken promises, the sadness of the Creator, redemption, a faithful family, a boat, building, lack of faith, animals 2x2, rain, wind, storms, waiting, wetlands, and dry land, rainbows, and promises. I am constantly reminded of the John Huston epic of the 1966 film called the Bible - the Beginning that covers the first 22 Chapters. It shaped me by the depiction of life in the ark of animals and special effects of the day. Beyond all the Sunday School stories of Noah and the Ark, we have God who is unhappy to the point of wanting to start all over. God finds a faith and remarkable old man and his family to make the land portion of the earth with animals and humans to survive and start over.
