The Shadow of Morality in Cruel Logic, a Theological Thriller Novel: Interview with Brian Godawa

In this episode of Truth and Shadow podcast, host BT interviews Brian Godawa about his recent book: Cruel Logic.

Here we go deeper than a mere surface reading and telling of this Theological Thriller.

BT and Brian discuss the impact of the psychosis on people, and society.

They discuss the issues that arise from the behavior and mannerisms of the psychopath, or sociopath.

BT keeps it in mind that this is a psychological thriller, even though for Godawa its a work of Theological Triller mystique.

The heat is on to discover what sets the mind off and what can be done to protect ourselves and those we love.

Iron and Myth – Psalm 29 – What does Baal have to do with Yahweh anyway?

The Psalms are often polemics directed at the gods of the pagan nations around Israel. Case in point is the subject of this month’s Iron and Myth roundtable, Psalm 29.

Host Derek Gilbert, Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic, and Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, discuss Psalm 29 and its interpretation from a divine counsel perspective.

We explore the translation of the Hebrew phrase bene elim as “sons of God” and its connection to the divine council (Psalm 82:1).

We also discuss the similarities between Psalm 29 and Canaanite poetry about Baal, suggesting that the psalm may be a subversive polemic against Baal worship.

We also highlight the geographical references in the psalm and their significance in relation to the storm-god language. It’s important to recognize these similarities and understand the cultural context of the biblical world.

Not only did the Hebrew prophets and psalmists take direct aim at the gods of their pagan neighbors, their writings reveal Christ in the Old Testament.

In their dialogue, Dr. Compton and Godawa look at how Christians can reconcile living in a world marred by darkness and evil with biblical teachings, examining the potential of fiction as an artistic medium to portray and communicate such realities.

Iron and Myth Podcast: The Gods of War in the War of Gods

Some of the most epic stories from the ancient world deal with the wars of the gods.

It’s not a coincidence that one of the most commonly used titles for God in the Bible is “Lord of hosts,” which literally means “Yahweh of armies.”

Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic, get together with Derek Gilbert to discuss warrior gods of the ancient world like Ares/Mars, Inanna/Ishtar, Baal/Zeus/Jupiter, and the violent old gods the Titans, and how their motives differ from those of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

We also talk about how we Christians, believing in a loving God who’s willing to forgive those who repent and accept Him as Lord, can reconcile the image of Jesus as the suffering servant with the depiction of Yahweh the warrior.

Fire Theft Radio Interview: Cruel Logic-The Philosopher Killer – Brian Godawa

I was on Fire Theft Radio for a great in depth interview. Here is what the podcast had to say about it:

Christian art like movies and books often suffer so much in quality because the focus is on the message and not the art itself.

How can a believer talk about moral relativism, or anything in the modern “woke” culture from a christian perspective and get the point across?

Author Brian Godawa tackles this and much more in his thrilling new novel “Cruel Logic”. Where a Serial Killer asks his victims before he kills them to give him a valid moral argument for him not to commit such a horrible crime against them.

We discuss on the show how moral relativism has destroyed western civilization and continue our conversation on the importance of being a defender of the faith.

Although the book is based on fictional characters, Brian makes sure he bridges the gap between christian themes and the art of a great story!

Chuck and Mav had a great conversation bringing up the modern state of decline of morality here in America.
