GSMC Bible Study Podcast Episode 22: Easter Vigil (4-15-17) Apr 15, 2017

Show notes

Sarah discusses 3 of the 14 readings that are assigned for the Easter Vigil. First is Genesis 7:1-5, 11-18; 8:6-18; 9:8-13, which tells the story of Noah's Ark and God's promise to never again flood the earth. Next is Proverbs 8:1-8, 19-21; 9:4b-6, which talks of Woman Wisdom, and might seem like an odd choice for the Vigil. Finally, she looks at Romans 6:3-11 which speaks of how when we are baptized we are baptized into both Jesus' death and resurrection, and why this is good news.
