Why do Biblical Genealogies matter??

In this episode Nancy S. Dawson enters the Dojo to talk about why she spent 20 years cataloguing EVERY genealogy in the Bible, how her background in biology and taxonomy uniquely equipped her for it, and why genealogies are not the boring lists we often think them to be!

What’s up with the name “Disciple Dojo”?? Great question! One of my lifelong passions has been studying the martial arts. And the place where you study and train in martial arts is a Dojo. Christian Discipleship is similar to martial arts training (if you don’t believe me, just ask Paul–he says so himself in his letter to Christians in ancient Corinth [1Cor. 9:26-27]!). We have a Sensei (teacher): Jesus. We have a katana (sword): Scripture. Thus Disciple Dojo is intended as a virtual Dojo–where students of the Master can be sharpened, challenged, equipped and encouraged as they continue to become more and more like the One they serve…minus the scrapes and bruises!
