Gold Foil Edges: Recent Episodes
Jason Chao
Gold Foil Edges is short fiction inspired by "small" characters in the bible, narrated and performed alongside music and sound effects. While I approach each story from a theological point of view, these are not theological lessons. They are meant to help us think about the Bible and it's characters as real people with real struggles and moments of mercy and grace. I take liberties in giving these characters backstory and cultural context, while acknowledging that they probably are not what actually happened. However, I hold to the inerrant word of God and so nothing that is expressly stated in the Bible is altered.
