Margaret Feinberg

Each Wednesday this summer, I’ve asked a Deeply Theological Whimsical Question. Something for you to play with, bat around, and explore. Since this is the final week, we’re going to select winners from posts at www.margaretfeinberg.com for each question and post a “Best Of the Deeply Theological Whimsical.”

Here are the ground rules:
-You are invited to open the Bible and think about each question.
-You are invited to be fun, thoughtful, snarky and highly creative.
-You are invited to respond with multiple answers.
-You are invited to be clever and creative.
-You are invited to respond with non-Sunday school responses.
-You are invited to treat others as you would like to be treated – no nasty grams folks.

Here is the Question:
You have the opportunity to give someone a piece of your mind! But you have to use the Bible to do it. Jesus calls the Pharisees “a brood of vipers” (Matthew 22:33) and some youths called Elisha “bald head” (2 Kings 2:23). What Biblical “phrase(s)” would you use to let someone have it?

Let the fun begin!

At the beginning of the summer, I introduced Deeply Theological Whimsical Wednesdays. Now you’re probably thinking, um, Margaret, those words don’t go together. You’re right. But they should.

And G.K. Chesteron is a reminder that it’s not impossible.

Here is the Question:

I’ve always wondered who would win if Superman took on the Incredible Hulk. And I can’t help but ask: In a showdown between a Nephilim giant (Genesis 6:4) and Goliath (1 Samuel 17), who would win and why?

Let the fun begin!

Here is the Question:

Russell Crowe, star of the Gladiator and Robin Hood, is going to make one bad boy Bible film. What Biblical story is his movie based on? What’s it called? Why?

Let the fun begin!
