Exploring My Strange Bible

I use Dr Mackie’s podcasts here and on Bible Project to grasp the big picture , glean other resources and borrow an eye opening phrase or two (with attribution) as I prepare weekly lectures for my Community Bible Study class in Houston, Texas. This year we are studying the gospel of Matthew one chapter per week. Listening to Mackie’s teaching makes me nerd out with him on Scripture and always unwraps some golden ticket of delight and illumination I had not seen on my own. I have no formal training so Dr Mackie is the perfect teacher. Thanks , Tim.

Love this podcast recommend for 10-14 year olds

If you have no idea what the Bible’s talking about, find it too boring to make it through a page, or aren’t sure why it even matters… this is for you. Turns out it’s amazing!! So glad I found this.

I realize I am super late to make a review on a podcast that ran for 2 years between 2017 and 2019, but I heard about this from one of The Bible Project podcasts (which I also discovered late…but not AS late). And I wish I could get a message to Tim Mackie. God just always seems to know what I need and Tim has a way of talking about the Bible, Yahweh, history and language that has been so helpful in just straight up learning who God is. I won’t go into my personal story in a podcast review so I’ll just say THANK YOU! If you would have told me a year ago I’d be so interested in a skate boarding preacher from Portland, OR, I would have laughed and said “Riiiiight” (cue meme of Dr Evil).
