"yes we can!" -- Real life is more complicated -- The power of forgetting -- Unlikely saviors -- Three strong women and three feeble men (I) -- Three strong women and three feeble men (II) -- On the unimportance of spiritual insight -- How to be a mixed-up person -- How to increase the odds against yourself -- I'm not the hero; the hero is God -- The man who would be king -- When God finds it hard to be tough -- The man whose promise makes the blood run cold -- Entertaining angels unawares -- Honey, we solved the riddle -- Love actually -- But Samson's hair began to grow again -- They all did what was right in their own eyes -- Desperate Dan -- The story reaches its lowest point (I) -- The story reaches its lowest point (II) -- How not to save the situation -- How Naomi's life falls apart -- The choice -- She's a Moabite, for goodness' sake! -- The God of coincidences -- How not to leave the initiative to the man -- How not to get overextended in real estate -- How David got his grandfather.
