When Giants Were Upon the EarthLUCKY THING Noah was far more merciful than God or none of us would be here.

That’s just one of the conclusions one could take away from the just-released motion picture starring Russell Crowe and Anthony Hopkins.

We discuss Noah with award-winning screenwriter Brian Godawa, creator of the Chronicles of the Nephilim series (and the first novel in the series, Noah Primeval) and author of the new book When Giants Were Upon the Earth: The Watchers, the Nephilim, and the Biblical Cosmic War of the Seed.  This is a fascinating book, the appendices to the Chronicles of the Nephilim novels collected in one release, the theological foundation on which Brian built the story arc of the series.

We learn what Brian thinks of Noah the movie, his take on director Darren Aronofsky’s approach to the story, and why Christians should lose the cartoon image of Noah we learned in Sunday School.


Derek and Sharon Gilbert will be at the Prophecy in the News Pikes Peak Prophecy Summit July 25-27, 2014 at the Marriott Hotel in Colorado Springs.  Watch for information here.

  1. I was going to link to Facebook, but the theological discussion of browsers …
    Thanks for interviewing Brian. He touched on a number of topics which have troubled me in the past until 2004, when I began putting a few things together. God is gracious, leading us when we are oblivious to it. History can be authoritative, but not canon. Touching on the Book of Jasher, the annals of the kings of Judah and Israel. 1 & 2 Samuel, 1 & 2 Kings, and 1 & 2 Chronicles are summaries and refer many, many times to the “Annals”. Excellent interview once again.

  2. Superlative show. Brian has joined the upper echelon of folks that I like to think of as “Allies of Authority”.

    (Even if he is ‘calviny’)

    Thanks to you both for all the good info.
