The power of the Holy Spirit was poured out in the time of Acts 2. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we have been given the gift of prophecy. Prophecy edifies the body of Christ. Where is it that you need edification? Learn how the Holy Spirit gives us edification through prophecy. ***** Welcome to Celebrating God's Grace, A Women World Leader's Podcast, I'm your host Robin Kirby-Gatto. Thank you for joining us today as we celebrate God's grace, in our lives, in our ministry, and around the world. Today's message is titled: The Gift of Prophecy The apostle Paul, writer of most of the New Testament, urged the church to edify one another in the grace of God revealed in the gift of prophecy. 1 Eagerly pursue and seek to acquire [this] love [make it your aim, your great quest]; and earnestly desire and cultivate the spiritual endowments (gifts), especially that you may prophesy (interpret the divine will and purpose in inspired preaching and teaching). 2 For one who speaks in an [unknown] tongue speaks not to men but to God, for no one understands or catches his meaning, because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things [not obvious to the understanding]. 3 But [on the other hand], the one who prophesies [who interprets the divine will and purpose in inspired preaching and teaching] speaks to men for their upbuilding and constructive spiritual progress and encouragement and consolation. 4 He who speaks in a [strange] tongue edifies and improves himself, but he who prophesies [interpreting the divine will and purpose and teaching with inspiration] edifies and improves the church and promotes growth [in Christian wisdom, piety, holiness, and happiness]. 5 Now I wish that you might all speak in [unknown] tongues, but more especially [I want you] to prophesy (to be inspired to preach and interpret the divine will and purpose). He who prophesies [who is inspired to preach and teach] is greater (more useful and more important) than he who speaks in [unknown] tongues, unless he should interpret [what he says], so that the church may be edified and receive good [from it]. 1 Corinthians 14:1-5 AMPC I will never forget the first time I experienced the beautiful gift of prophecy at a women's prayer meeting. I had known the Lord and attended church since I was a little girl, but it wasn't until 2003, in my mid-thirties that I witnessed an elderly woman prophesying over another sister-in-Christ. To me, it started out as a day of excitement and anticipation. I was hungry and thirsty for more of God and didn't know what to expect at a prayer meeting, other than there would be a short teaching, which would then lead into a prayer. Up to this point for a year-and-a-half, I had been reading the word of God hours a day and praying earnestly after each reading. God had to redeem the time in my life, as the power of Holy Spirit came on me Resurrection Sunday 2002, setting me free of alcoholism. My joy was full and made complete, as I experienced the washing of God's Word, and the bounty of Living Waters in my belly. It was then that I wanted to pour the abundant Life I possessed upon others but didn't know how. I couldn't put words to it, or never knew what “it” was that I was looking for. The teaching at the meeting had ended, and the women began to pray. About ten minutes into prayer, I witnessed the gift of prophecy. My heart leapt with joy, as prayer and prophecy continued throughout. At the end of the meeting, I spontaneously erupted “WHAT WAS THAT?” The women explained that it was the gift of prophecy. Caught in the afterglow of such powerful prayer and prophecy, I then blurted, “I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT ALL OF MY LIFE!” I didn't know that this was the “it” I was looking for as a Christian. I'd known the Word of Truth for years, but somehow my eyes were covered from seeing 1 Corinthians 12 and 14 with the gifts of Holy Spirit. I desired prophecy all my life as a Christian, how could I not. All through high school I was a football cheerleader. It made my heart content, running up and down the field cheering the football players on, to win the game. I love edifying others, and to me, prophecy is cheerleading the saints. The Greek word for gift is pneumatikós pronounced pnyoo-mat-ik-os meaning, “ethereal, supernatural, and spiritual.” [i] Ethereal means that which is beyond the clouds and is heavenly. The gifts of God came to mankind on Pentecost at the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2, prophesied in Joel 2. 28 “And afterward I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. 29 Even upon the menservants and upon the maidservants in those days will I pour out My Spirit.” Joel 2:28-29 AMPC The Holy Spirit, Who is at the Throne of God as seven torches of Fire, does not speak His own message, but only what the Father says. (See Revelation 4:5; John 16:13) Thus, this gift of prophecy is God's grace by the Holy Spirit at operation inside of us, to speak edification according to the need. Jesus teaches the disciples how to pray in Luke 11, saying “give us this day our daily bread.” (See Luke 11:3) Immediately after the Lord's prayer, Jesus depicts what the bread represents. He describes a man who had need of bread, since he had visitors over at his house. He then goes to a friend's house to ask for bread at midnight and knocks on his door. The friend tells him to leave because it was late, and his children were sleeping. That didn't stop the guy from knocking on the door, and finally the friend got up and gave him as much as he “needed.” Jesus then goes on to explain that we are to keep asking, seeking, and knocking, and the Father will open the door to give us the gift of the Holy Spirit. (See Luke 11:5-13) There are times in your life when you need a personal cheerleader, you need to be edified. Moreover, there are times that you will come across others who need to be edified. In such times, the Lord God supplies us with grace to ask, seek, and knock on the door and the gift of the Holy Spirit will be poured out to bring forth the edification needed in prophecy. Prophecy in Greek is prophēteía pronounced prof-ay-ti'-ah meaning, “prophecy, prediction, and prophesying.” [ii] Prediction comes from the Latin word praedicere meaning “make known beforehand.” The Latin word for prediction is spelled P.R.A.E.D.I.C.E.R.E. As I saw the Latin word for prediction, I couldn't help but see PRAED as PRAYED, and icere as I C (see). In John 16:13 Jesus states that the Holy Spirit will show us things to come. He will show us what to pray. Through prayer, we will feel a lifting in our heart, being filled with joy and excitement that God is up to something. By faith as we open our mouth and pray forth, we shall prophesy! This is the power of God's grace in His beautiful gift of prophecy. The gift of prophecy edifies. The word edify in Greek is oikodomḗ pronounced oy-kod-om-ay' meaning, “architecture, confirmation, building, edify, and edification.” [iii] Thus, edification builds people up, confirming what God has placed within them, defeating the powers of darkness that would assail them with lies. A great analogy of this beautiful gift and what takes place in the invisible realm is in Song of Solomon 6. 12 “Before I was aware [of what was happening], my desire [to roam about] had brought me into the area of the princes of my people [the king's retinue]. 13 [I began to flee, but they called to me] Return, return, O Shulammite; return, return, that we may look upon you! [I replied] What is there for you to see in the [poor little] Shulammite? [And they answered] As upon a dance before two armies or a dance of Mahanaim.” Song of Solomon 6:12-13 AMPC The Shulammite is hungry to know the King, who is the Good Shepherd. She's so caught up in knowing Him that she doesn't realize the power that has come through her, in their love. As the daughters of Jerusalem go after her to behold her beauty, the Shulammite asks them “what is there to look at.” Their response is that when we see you, we see the dance of Mahanaim, which means THE DANCE OF TWO ARMIES. In other words, the love relationship you have with the King, has given you the authority of two armies. That is the power of prayer and the gift of prophecy. One can send a thousand to flight, but two can send ten thousand to flight. This gift of prophecy encourages you and others, bringing a fresh anointing of the Lord's hope and future. (See Jeremiah 29:11-13) Where is it that you or someone you know needs hope? Seek God and desire to prophesy! [i] Strong J. (1890) Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, Abingdon Press.

It's that easy. Curated News How to Grow and Care for Blueberry Bushes for Buckets of Sweet Blueberries | Stephanie Rose over at Garden Therapy "Blueberries are easy to grow, look beautiful in the garden, taste fabulous, and are well-known to be good for you. If you have just a bit of space and some sun, plant a blueberry bush or two as gorgeous landscaping and enjoy the many benefits of sun-ripened blueberries picked straight from your garden. Here are a few other known health benefits of blueberries: Blueberries are low on the glycemic index, which means that they do not cause your blood sugar to spike. They are considered to be a very nutritious fruit, supplying high levels of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Studies show that they help improve memory. Numerous studies have shown that blueberries help lower blood pressure. Blueberries are closely related to cranberries and may help prevent urinary tract infections. Add a few blueberry plants to your landscape for their white, bell-shaped blooms in the spring and the bright globes of blue in the summer. But the REAL show happens in the late fall when the bushes turn bright red, neon pink, orange, or red-purple. Blueberry bushes make a great edible alternative to short growing shrubs like boxwood. Imagine a row of blueberries lining the fence and how many berries you will have! And you know garden-grown food always tastes better than grocery store-bought food." Work early, and stay cool. To avoid the high temps, potential sunburn, and bug bites, I go out in the morning, work for no more than a two-hour stint and wrap up no later than 10 am. For self-care, I set up a sports umbrella for shade, and I bring a massive fan around with me to stay cool. The fan also keeps the bugs at bay; mosquitos especially are not good fliers.

Important Events 1842 Today is the birthday of a pioneering seedsman out of Rockford, Illinois, Roland Hallet Shumway - who always went by his initials R.H. The RH Shumway Seed Company became the world's largest mail-order seed company; their "Marketmore" seeds are especially popular. Famous Shumway Seed customers included Bing Crosby and Perry Como. When Roland was 19, he enlisted in the army to serve in the Civil War. He contracted bronchitis and became totally deaf during his service. Once Roland was asked how he would like to be remembered. He gave a three-word response: Good Seeds Cheap. Roland said that he wanted to make sure, "That good seeds were within reach of the poorest planters " As with any venture, hustle and heart drove Roland's success. Roland said, "From the beginning of the new year, until after spring planting, my industrious employees work 16 hours a day, and myself and my family 18 or more hours per day. Are we not surely knights at labor? How can we do more? Do we not deserve the patronage of every planter in America?" In 1905, Roland donated land in Rockford for the Shumway Market on the condition that the city would preserve the Farmer's Market in perpetuity, "for the benefit of all and the poor especially. " The market ran year-round on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. This was THE place for farmers and people to gather and sell their fruits, vegetables, and flowers. In the 1980s, Shumway Seed was sold, and today the area behind the market building is a parking lot. 1856 Today is the birthday of the Irish playwright and critic George Bernard Shaw. In 1906, when he was 50 years old, George and his wife Charlotte bought an ivy-covered brick country house set on almost four acres of land that ultimately became known as Shaw's Corner in Ayot St Lawrence. For over four decades, George wrote most of his work in his tiny writing shed in the garden at Shaw's Corner. Both Pygmalion and Heartbreak House were created in George's little writing hut. Now, when George worked in his little hut, he sat in a straight back wicker chair and wrote using a black typewriter that was positioned on a little shelf-desk attached to the wall in the corner. George could communicate with the outside world using the wall-mounted phone that was above the desk. The hut had windows on the front and back sides, and there was a little bed built into the side opposite the desk. George wouldn't have had much room to move around other than to get to his desk, stand up, turn around, and then lie on his bed. It was all very modest and humble except that his little summer house had a unique feature to distinguished itself - it was built on top of a revolving platform. This ingenious device made it so that the little hut could be turned to face the sun throughout the day. When the Shaw's first bought the property, there wasn't much except for open land. Over the years, Charlotte and George worked to transform the place into a personal sanctuary. At first, the Shaw's split time between Shaw's corner and their London house. However, as they grew older, they gravitated more and more to Shaw's corner. The Shaw's loved their garden. From family records, we know the Shaws especially enjoyed delphiniums, iris, and tulips. And, every day, George and Charlotte would walk around the garden together every morning and keep tally the number of kilometers by adding a stone to a pile in the garden. At the age of 94, George was still actively gardening until his unexpected death after a fall. George had been pruning a tree and slipped off the ladder. After their deaths, George and Charlotte's ashes were spread over the garden paths they had loved to walk together. To this day, George's July birthday is honored with performances of his plays in his garden. It was George Bernard Shaw who said all of these gardening quotes: I have found, after a good deal of consideration, that the best place to seek God is in a garden. You can dig for him there. Gardening is the only unquestionably useful job. The planting of a tree is a modest form of immortality and one of the few truly long-term expressions of hope to mortal human beings. Except during the nine months before he draws his first breath, no man manages his affairs, as well as a tree, does. 1899 Today is the 121st anniversary of the 14-week botanical expedition through Yellowstone led by the botanist Aven Nelson. Aven had hired a student named Leslie Gooding to be the chore boy for $10 per month. The group assembled at the University of Wyoming, where Nelsen was a new teacher. Leslie remembered the excitement on campus at the prospect of going on the trek, saying, "Some three or four months were to be spent in Yellowstone park collecting plants… Many students… were anxious to accompany Dr. Nelson on [the] expedition, and were willing to work for nothing just to see the Park… This was in the days when autos were much like hen's teeth, and trips through the Park by stage were expensive. " (Note: The euphemism "hen's teeth "refers to something being exceptionally rare; since hens have no teeth, it implies that something is so scarce it is virtually nonexistent. So, during the time of this expedition – no vehicles.) In addition to Leslie, another botany student named Elias Nelsen, (no relation to Aven), joined the group. On this day, back in 1899, Leslie and Elias had gone collecting near an area called Artist Paint Pots; it's a dangerous area with over 50 springs, geysers, vents, and mud pots. Geothermal features are some of the deadliest natural features in Yellowstone, but people often fail to realize that fact. To this day, park rangers rescue one or two visitors, who fall from boardwalks or wander off designated paths and punch their feet through the thin earthen crust into boiling water. Yet, drawn by curiosity, Elias ignored the warning signs and went off the path. Suddenly, he found himself with one leg sunk into boiling mud. He managed to free himself, and Aven's wife did what she could with soda and flour to bandage his wounds, and the doc at the nearest town recommend Elias return home for treatment. Despite the challenges posed by Yellowstone, Aven Nelsen and his team collected roughly 30,000 specimens, although only about 500 species were represented. Aven had purposely gathered 20 -30 duplicates per species because he correctly assumed that institutions and collectors would want specimens from Yellowstone. Today, Aven is remembered as the Father of Wyoming Botany, but his greatest legacy is the Rocky Mountain Herbarium created from Aven's collection of Yellowstone plants. Unearthed Words Here are some words from July Folklore: Never trust a July sky or Never trust the sky in the month of July. As July, so next January. If the 1st of July be rainy weather, it will rain more or less for three weeks together. If ant hills are high in July, the coming winter will be hard. Whatever July and August do not boil, September can not fry. No tempest, good July, Lest the corn look ruely. Corn should be knee-high by the Fourth of July.

Today's Botanic Spark 1839 Today is the birthday of the English writer and politician Winthrop Mackworth Praed, who is remembered for his humorous verse. He wrote, "I remember, I remember how my childhood fleeted by. The mirth of its December, and the warmth of its July." At his home, Winthrop had a fine grove with beautiful grounds that overlooked a harbor. At one point, he even built an orangery. Sadly, Winthrop died at age 37 from tuberculosis. Yet, for many years, his fans enjoyed this little story about him: "A man went to a bookshop and asked, "Have you, Browning?" And the clerk replied, "No, we can't sell him. People say they can't understand him." Then the customer asked, "Have you Praed?" And the clerk said, "Yes, we've prayed, and we can't understand him.

We play the gamebook The Sword Of The Templar and try to let the forces of lightness overcome the forces of darkness. Lend us your ear and find out if we succeed...
The lord of the trees and the lady of the pigs join forces in the excellent adventure called Rutterkin. Podcasters Sytse and Steph discuss family relations, historical background and how many times has been taken hostage in the third series of Robin of Sherwood.
Have you tried to propagate roses through cutting? Maybe you want to pass along an old rose from a friend or simply make more of your own. You can take a cutting of your rose, which is also called a slip. When it comes to selecting the right stem, I look for a long, young shoot. These new shoots are about the diameter of a pencil and have grown from spots I have pruned earlier in the year – which is another benefit of pruning. Now these shoots are pretty easy to spot; they are usually a little lighter in color and they are super vigorous. Anyway, you want to cut one long shoot down low and then make your hardwood slips from that one long shoot. If you look at the long stem you just cut, you’ll notice that, at the top, the stem is pliable; meaning you can bend it quite easily. But as you go further down the stem, you’ll begin to notice that the soft, pliability goes away and all you’re left with is what we call hardwood. That’s where you will take your cuttings. From one long stem I can usually get three or four 5 to 7 inch cuttings. So, bottom line; Don’t take your cutting from a stem that is bendable. Now when you make your slips, use something sharp – it can be a knife or a pruner. For the bottom of the cutting, cut straight across - right below a bud(where the leads to connect to the stem.) For the top of your slip, cut at an angle - right above a bud. Using those bud connection points as guides for cutting is important because this is where loads of non-determinant cells like to hang out. That means the plants can leverage them to make roots or shoots, depending on what it needs to do to survive. Pretty cool, huh? Then, I just strip the leaves off from the lower 4 inches of the stem, leaving just one or two leaf clusters at the tip. Then, I trim some of the bark from the bottom inch or so of the cutting; making it rather squarish (like a mint stem), and then I dip that into rooting powder. Finally, place the bottom 3-4 inches of the cutting into well drained potting soil in the ground and cut and cover the slip with a mason jar. Brevities #OTD It’s the birthday of Roland Hallet Shumway who was born on this day in 1842. A pioneering seedsman out of Rockford, Illinois, Shumway always went by his initials of R.H. The RH Shumway Seed Company became the worlds largest mail-order seed company; their "Marketmore" seeds or especially popular. Famous Shumway Seed customers included Bing Crosby and Perry Como. When Shumway was 19, he enlisted in the army to serve in the Civil War. He contracted bronchitis and became totally deaf during his service. Once Shumway was asked how he would like to be remembered. He gave a three word response: Good Seeds Cheap. Shumway said that he wanted to make sure, “that good seeds were within the reach of the poorest planters“ As with any venture, sweat equity drives success. Shumway said, “From the beginning of the new year, until after spring planting, my industrious employees work 16 hours a day, and myself and my family 18 or more hours per day. Are we not surely knights at labor? How can we do more? Do we not deserve the patronage of every planter in America ?” #OTD It's the 120th anniversary of the 14-week botanical expedition through Yellowstone led by the botanist Aven Nelson. Aven had hired a student named Leslie Goodding to be the chore boy for $10 per month. The group assembled at the University of Wyoming where Nelsen had been hired to teach. Leslie remembered the excitement on campus at the prospect of going on the trek, saying, “Some three or four months were to be spent in Yellowstone park collecting plants… Many students… were anxious to accompany Dr. Nelson on [the] expedition, and were willing to work for nothing just to see the Park… This was in the days when autos were much like hen's teeth and trips through the Park by stage were expensive.“ (Note: The euphemism “hen's teeth“ refers to something being exceptionally rare; since hens have no teeth, it implies that something is so scarce it is virtually nonexistent. So, during the time of this expedition – no vehicles.) In addition to Leslie, another botany student named Elias Nelsen, (no relation to Aven), joined the group. Anyway, on this day in 1899, Leslie and Elias, had gone collecting near an area called Artist Paint Pots; it's a dangerous area with over 50 springs, geysers, vents and mud pots. Geothermal features are some of the most dangerous natural features in Yellowstone, but people often fail to realize that fact. To this day, park rangers rescue one or two visitors, who fall from boardwalks or wander off designated paths and punch their feet through thin earthen crust into boiling water. Yet, drawn by curiosity, Elias ignored the warning signs and went off the path. Suddenly, he found himself with one leg sunk into boiling hot mud. He managed to free himself and Aven's wife did what she could with soda and flour to bandage his wounds, and the doc at the nearest town recommend Elias return home for treatment. Despite the challenges posed by Yellowstone, Aven Nelsen and his team collected roughly 30,000 specimens although only about 500 species were represented. Nelson had purposely gathered 20 -30 duplicates per species because he correctly assumed that institutions and collectors would want specimens from Yellowstone. Today, Nelson is remembered as the Father of Wyoming Botany, but his greatest legacy is the Rocky Mountain Herbarium created from Nelson's collection of Yellowstone plants. Unearthed Words Here's a few verses about July from a poem by Ruth Pitter called The Diehards from her wonderful book called "The Rude Potato." "We go in withering July To ply the hard incessant hoe; Panting beneath the brazen sky We sweat and grumble, but we go." Today's book recommendation: The Rude Potato by Ruth Pitter As a gardener herself, Ruth had a personal knowledge of flowers. She loved gardening and she wrote her poetry when she finished her chores and her gardening. The Rude Potato is a very witty entertaining collection of poems about gardens and gardeners. Today's Garden Chore How to Garden through the dog days of summer by working early and staying cool. For many of us, the dog days of summer can be a time when we take a break from gardening. To avoid the high temps, potential sunburn, and bug bites, I go out in the morning, work for no more than a two hour stint and wrap up no later than 10am. For self-care, I set up a sports umbrella for shade and I bring a large fan around with me to stay cool. The fan also keeps the bugs at bay; mosquitos especially are not good fliers. Something Sweet Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart #OTD Today is the birthday of Winthrop Mackworth Praed - Praed was an English writer and politician remembered for his humorous verse. He wrote, "I remember, I remember how my childhood fleeted by. The mirth of its December, and the warmth of its July." Praed's home had a fine grove. He had an orangery and beautiful grounds overlooking a harbor. Praed tragically died at 37 from tuberculosis. For many years, his fans enjoyed this little story about him: "A man want to a bookshop and asked, "Have you Browning?" And the clerk replied, "No we cant sell him. People say they can't understand him." Then the customer asked, "Have you Praed?" And the clerk said, "Yes, we've prayed and we can't understand him. Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."
Only by being who we are, the Robin of Sherwood Podcast, we can prevail. This time we focuss on The Pretender, a rather confusing adventure that's full of history. Luckily cohost Steph knows a lot about the historical facts surrounding this episode. Also she has met The Pretender in person.
On the day Robin of Sherwood celebrates its 35th birthday, we have a look at one of the strongest episodes of the third series: Adam Bell. Podcasters Gary and Sytse discuss the strategy of the outlaws, the use of sounds effects in the serie and ways for Much's grandfather so save money on door repairmen. And of course many other things about this interesting adventure.
King John shows up with a plan to undermine the support for Robin Hood and finally catch him. In the second half of the show Marion becomes his main focus point. In this podcast we discuss all things Betrayal, podcaster Steph makes a pretty good case for this episode that is not very popular amongst fans. So: lend her your ear and she will make you like it at least a little bit more...
The Robin of Sherwood Podcast is back! And so is Gulnar, the out of control wizard with a grudge against Robin Hood. Or is his secret affection for Marion that drives him? Anyway, he comes up with a very complicated plan to frame the outlaws that involves a lot of magic, plotholes and a stolen rowing boat. Luckily, brother Tuck takes a trip down memory lane to save the day.
In this special bonus episode of the podcast, we are not going to talk about our hero, we are going to BE Robin Hood. Following the rules and the story of the game book The Kings Demon, we are out on an adventure battling against the mysterious sir Jean.

In this episode we meet whining Will, Gisburne's mother and yet another guy called Martin. More than enough stuff to talk about for our podcasters Steph and Sytse. At one point one of them is even so impressed by of Judi Trott that she knocks over her microphone. So go and find your half brother so you can listen to this podcast together.
Robin Hood, the Sheriff of Nottingham and sir Guy of Gisburne are all sides of the same three sided coin. And so are Robin of Sherwood, the podcast and its hosts. In this episode podcasters Sytse and Gary talk about Nasir's past, the influence of samurai movies, the behavior of camels and one of the biggest mysteries in TV history: what's up with Sarak's voice?
The podcast that was and the podcast that is to be... This time we talk about The Inheritance, in which Robin sneaks out on the merries to go on an adventure with a blonde feminist who strongly believes in defending an entire castle with just one extra guy.
Robin Hood is back with a vengeance! Or so it seems. Has Robert of Huntingdon really accepted his fate as the new Hooded Man? And do the outlaws really accept him as their leader? And how does Marion cope with a new guy replacing her late husband? Luckily there's a sword to answer these intriguing questions. Gary Rhodes joins the podcast as a co-host to discuss this wonderful episode of Robin of Sherwood.
Will Robert of Huntingdon bring together the Merries and save Marion? What happened to the sheep Little John and Much left behind? And why did Gulnar try to bewitch Marion with an aubergine? We talk about this and more in our podcast about Herne's Son part 2!
It's been a year since Robin Hood died. And several weeks since we've put out a podcast. But there's a new day dawning. Familiair faces and voices meet up with new one's, all coming together around Herne's Son.
In this special edition of the Robin of Sherwood Podcast we have an interview with Phil Rose, the actor we all know and love as friar Tuck. We talk about his memories of making the show, his view on Tuck as a character and lots more. It was an absolute pleasure to have a main cast member as a guest and we hope all the fans out there will enjoy it.
What is the greatest podcast, always near to you, sometimes on your shoulder? Sytse and Andy discuss the last episode of the second series and the last one starring Michael Praed as Robin, a story packed with great action scenes and heartbreaking moments. Have a listen if you're ready to face your greatest enemy.
The podcasters pick apart The Enchantment, the second to last episode of the Michael Praed era. What's the background of Ralph? What are the future career opportunities for Baron de Belleme? And why is there no final battle between Herne and the baron? You'll hear that and more in this enchanting episode of the Robin of Sherwood Podcast!
In this special bonus episode of the Robin of Sherwood Podcast we have a look (or better said: a listen) at the enhanced audiobooks that came out in 2017. How do we like them and what do they add to the catalogue? En which of the five stories is the best according to the podcasters?
Sjalom! In this episode the podcasters talk about The Children of Israel, one of the strongest story of the second season. But what makes it so great? What is the theme of this one? And why does the village of Calverton look so familiar? Also we have a special surprise at the end of this podcast.
In this episode Andy and Sytse talk about their favourite character, the iconic image of Herne the Hunter, the popularity of Robin of Sherwood in Sri Lanka, how to pronounce the word Brabacons, the most challenging shot master-archer Robin has ever made and many more things related to Lord of the Trees.
He psst, Robin, listen up son, I need you to do me a little favour. I've had this vision of a mysterious prisoner and I've got the feeling he must be freed. Would you do that for me? Cheers mate, Herne.
A Robin Hood story without the sheriff, sir Guy and Nottingham, does that even work? The brilliant adventure The Swords of Wayland proves it sure does! Robin even comes face to face with the devil himself. In part two we discuss why this is such a great and popular double episode.
Podcasters Sytse and Andy are back for the second season! And so are Robin, Marion, Much, Scarlet, John, Tuck and Nasir (Martin not so much). This time about The Swords Of Wayland, exploring the darkness of the story, Herne's input, the style of the new director and who would be the perfect Tinder-match for Morgwyn of Ravenscar.
