Genesis 6-9 — What The Flood Could Not Get

Thank you for joining us for today's episode of Learning How to See, hosted by Brian McLaren, with guest hosts Rev. Dr. Randy Woodley and Edith Woodley. Today, Edith reads the Biblical flood story from Genesis 6–9. She then connects this flood story to the U.S. government’s Native American boarding school system — including her own family’s history at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. Our hosts invite us to consider: what does it mean to survive a flood that was “meant to cover everything” — and didn’t? Resources: Find the transcript for today's episode here. Learn more about the Woodleys and Eloheh here. Pick up a copy of Randy’s new book, How Western Christianity Got It Wrong. Journey to Eloheh by Randy and Edith Woodley explores how Indigenous values lead us to harmony and well-being. Discover more about composer April Stace ⁠⁠here.
