The StoryMen welcome author and podcaster Matt Mikalatos to the show to discuss his new book Into the Fray. A sequel to The First Time We Saw Him, Matt reimagines the book of Acts, setting the stories of the early church in a contemporary context. Matt shares what he learned writing the book, reads one of his favorite parts and we dream about what the Church can learn today.
Since Matt just put out a new translation of the book of Ruth, we discuss the issues that go into translating the Bible. What questions do translators have to ask themselves? What're our favorite translations? PLUS: our hot take on the new Jordan Peele project!dro
