[1]You’ve likely read the biblical story about Jesus’ life and perhaps even have seen a few Hollywood-type movies, but you’ve probably never heard it told like today’s Off The Grid Radio guest tells it – with spiritual warfare taking place behind the scenes and Christ even descending into Hades.
Author and screenwriter Brian Godawa is our guest, and his latest book, Jesus Triumphant, recounts Jesus’ life, death, resurrection and ascension in a way that definitely wasn’t taught in Sunday School. The book is the latest in the Chronicles of Nephilim biblical fantasy series that began with Noah Primeval and last year included David Ascendant [2].
The books are based on Scripture with lots of imagination mixed in — and they’re definitely thought-provoking.
Godawa tells us:
[3]
- How he believes the giants in the Old Testament played a role in the story of Christ.
- Why it’s mistaken to consider Jesus a pacifist.
- How the newest book interprets one of the most debated passages in the Bible, where Jesus preached to “spirits in prison” (1 Peter 3:18-20).
- Why he believes the demons in Jesus’ day actually were the spirits of the dead Nephilim.
- How biblical fantasy can help Christians see the Bible in a new light.
