Show Notes

Episode 1100 of the 10:10 Thrive Podcast presents a powerful dramatic musical retelling of Noah’s calling to build the ark and the reactions of those around him. The episode begins with God’s declaration of judgment, expressing deep sorrow over humanity’s corruption and violence. The earth, once a reflection of His perfect creation, has become unrecognizable in its wickedness, and divine justice must prevail. Noah’s wife then takes center stage, offering a deeply personal reflection on her husband’s unwavering faith. She recalls his steadfast devotion to God, his years of preaching, and the ridicule he has endured. Now, faced with an unimaginable command—to build an ark for a flood no one believes will come—she wrestles with doubt and fear. Yet, in the end, she resolves to stand beside him, to trust in his faith, and to obey the God who has spoken.

 

The narrative then shifts to the perspective of Noah’s detractors—men of the antediluvian world who scoff at his work. One mocks Noah as a “madman” who labors endlessly on a massive, pointless structure, dragging trees and hammering planks for decades. Another ridicules his preaching, dismissing his warnings of a flood as absurd, for how could the sky unleash enough rain to drown the world? The people see themselves as masters of their own fate, reveling in their wealth, power, and indulgence. To them, Noah’s God is invisible and irrelevant, and his prophecy is nothing more than a ghost story. They pride themselves on their strength, their civilization, and their supposed wisdom, believing that they have no need for divine intervention.

 

The episode concludes with the skeptics' final declaration: Noah is a fool, and they will continue their feasting and indulgence, confident that no flood will ever come. Their arrogance blinds them to the coming disaster, as they reject Noah’s call to repentance and scorn his faithfulness.
