Monologue: Saving Joachim

This Sunday Pastor Rob presented a monologue titled Saving Joachim (though the first part will really be a dialogue with a special guest)! The monologue is based on the father of Mary, a non-biblical character, but one who is identified in apocryphal literature-writings of the same time period as biblical books but not included as Holy Scripture. In this case, the story of Mary's parents, Joachim and Anna (for whom there is a church dedicated in her name in Jerusalem built over the site where their house was believed to be) is told in the apocryphal Gospel of James. You can access that writing here. The stories about Joachim and Anna are told in the first three chapters.
