Adam and Eve. Abraham and Sarah. Moses. We think we know their stories, but the Bible tells us only part of the story. What if we could see the full picture?   Maybe we’d see that…   …Adam and Eve were children, happily naming all the animals they saw, fearful of the forbidden tree, challenging the rules, growing up.  …Noah felt hopeless and angry after endless days and nights of rain, a world buried under water, memories of mocking neighbors who perished, desperate for any kind of hope.  …Abram and Sarah, gleefully, recklessly smashed idols in his father’s workshop, were stunned by a revelation that would change their world.  …Moses didn’t want to know that the Israelite slaves were his own people, couldn’t imagine that they would want to follow him, felt dread at being asked to lead.  Maybe these iconic figures of the bible were people just like us, filled with fear and joy, jealousy and passion, mischief and love.  Maybe it happened this way.
