When you want someone to know you, where do you start?

How do you catch someone up on an entire life lived outside of their view?

A personality varied and complex, a collection of priorities, some of which seem at odds with one another.

How do you show someone yourself?

This is a story about introductions, about the sharing of history, the demonstration of temperament, the revealing of

dreams. It's a story about a God who desires to be known, and it's the story of a man who came

face to face with that yearning the day he opened himself up to the impossible.

I'm Justin Gerhard.

Welcome to Holy Ghost Stories.

Thank you. The

The Moses staggers away from the corpse he's just buried, the man he's just murdered.

With the work of digging done, his mind is now woefully free to replay the horrors of his crime again and again.

A Hebrew slave, cowering beneath the relentless whip of an Egyptian taskmaster,

cries of his people's pain ricocheting off temple walls,

his heart hammering, rage rising, this is not right.

A monstrous conglomerate of emotion.

Anger, guilt, sorrow, grief, disgust, tangled, fused, unprocessed.

And then, reflex.

If the Hebrew's God will not crush this snake, I will.

A look left, then right, violence, retribution, death.

Was it an accident?

Did he mean to kill this man?
