Red means many things to many people, from love to KFC to the sock you left in a load of whites that one time. Red coats the Bible as well, from Esau’s “bowl of that red stuff” to the rider on the red horse to the blood of Jesus. This week we cover the messages God circles in red; the red lights that signal go instead of stop; the red-headed preacher and killer who became a country music legend; and how Russian Communists tried to destroy religion but left enough behind to inspire a terrific board game.
