Introducing our "Keith Sessions" named after Gilbert Keith Chesterton. This one was recorded February 13/25 as a Reflection for our SILC Chesterton Academy students. In this theological exploration, we delve into Genesis 6 and its mysterious account of the Nephilim, examining three different interpretations of this fascinating biblical passage. The speaker discusses how this text relates to God's incredible patience with humanity. Beginning with a reading about the "sons of God" and "daughters of men," the talk explores whether these beings were the descendants of Seth and Cain, fallen angels, or perhaps a combination of both. Dr. Gerard McLarney weaves through references to Beowulf, First Peter, and Corinthians, ultimately connecting these ancient texts to modern spiritual challenges. The talk concludes with a powerful metaphor comparing the church to Noah's ark - a place of refuge and salvation where God's patience awaits humanity's return. Perfect for students of theology, literature enthusiasts, or anyone interested in understanding complex biblical narratives in an accessible way.#BiblicalStudies#Theology #Genesis #ChristianEducation #ReligiousStudies #ChurchHistory #chestertonacademy #classicaleducation #catholiceducation
