6.26 In the Days of King Herod
When Luke starts his Gospel by writing "In the Days of King Herod," is he setting the date for Jesus' birth? No, he is doing much more than that. He's telling a story. This is that story.
Based on Luke 1:5-25.

I created this podcast – to attempt to retell some of my favourite Bible stories in a way that might help us to hear them as their first listeners would have done so. Such a retelling may not help us to know exactly what happened, but I hope it might help us to delve into those truths that they were trying to communicate.
