Since I was a kid, I dreamed of taking a trip to Japan. Well, this last August my wife and I did just that. Here are some photos and short movie clips from that trip.
I got my eye-opening re spirit beings when I began to follow Dr. Michael Heiser's podcast The Naked Bible (as in, not clothed in denominational doctrines or traditions). His Unseen Realm has sold nearly 100K copies... unheard of for a scholarly work about the Bible. (Supernatural is the condensed laymen's version his publisher insisted he prepare.) His scholarly books on Mt. Hermon and the contextual significance of NT accounts of Jesus' time in its vicinity, as well as his books Angels and Demons, explore the topic of spirit beings as they are represented both in the Bible and contextually in the literature and customs of Israel and surrounding nations. He answered so many questions I'd had for years. His stated mission was to make material scholars were well aware of but that rarely found its way to laymen and make it readily accessible and comprehensible. If you have Logos software or otherwise use Faithlife products, you've seen plenty of his work on other topics. He was scholar in residence there for nineteen years.
