Seven Days with Lot: Seven Days, #2

By Pauline Youd

Remember Lot? He is the main character in the biblical story of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Why does Lot choose to live in Sodom? When God says He is going to destroy the city because of its wickedness, why do Lot and his wife hesitate to leave? In His mercy, God sends His angel to lead Lot, his wife and his two daughters out of the city. When the angel tells them to flee to the mountains, Lot pleads to go only as far as the small town of Zoar. Only three of them arrive there safely before God rains fire and brimstone on the land. What happens to the other one?
How do they spend the rest of their days? What is Lot's legacy?
From the name Sodom, we get the word sodomy. What is Sodomy? What is incest? Lot's story, which contains both, is not meant for children.

I like to write, read, teach, sing, play the piano, swim, cook, play in the yard, and walk by the ocean. I prefer coloring books to plain paper, summer to winter, daytime to nightime, and morning to afternoon. I like large families, but I prefer to visit with one friend at a time. I love to study the Bible and discuss what God is doing in the world today, but I can't handle really scary adventure novels. I am more interested in people and animals than in rocks and plants. I tutor reading and writing and prefer second graders. I live with my husband Bill and cat Sasha in the center of California.

Although set in patriarchal times, the life of Lot showcases some of the eternal truths given in Scripture to help young adults in the 21st century steer a safe course through the land mines of wrong choices.

Follow the conflicted course of Lot’s life and see what lasting influences are set in motion by his choices of friends and lifestyle.
