About this listen

 Hi, my name is Barry and welcome to the Faith over Dementia podcast. I have been living with Early Onset Alzheimer's disease since I was 57. I am also a Christian so now I am exploring how life now works for me in this ever-changing world with its new challenges and new opportunities. I have always liked to think out loud, talk about the bible and its text, its narrative, the books I am reading, films and anything else that interests me. This is my attempt to share this part of my journey with all of its ups and downs in God's good creation. So why not come along and join me?Faith Over Dementia Spirituality

    More Descendants, More Corruption and a Flood – Part 2

    Episode 010: Genesis Chapter 6-9 has just landed. A short series of the first 11 chapters of Genesis, and how they help us understand the the outworking of the rest of the Bible narrative.

    So, last episode we saw just how far the people had fallen into wickedness and sin.

    But this time, in a kind of reversal of Genesis 1, God determines to wipe out man, animals, creeping things and birds, An indication of just how corrupt things had become. He was sorry that He had made them…

    Then just when all hope seemed lost, verse 8 of chapter six is dropped in our laps and hope is found and, maybe restored again:

    “But Noah, found favour, in the eyes of the Lord”
