    275 | John 5-6: Jesus the Monologuer

    The book of John continues to delight us with new content and bolder, more polarizing Jesus! Porches make their New Testament debut, mats are carried on the wrong day, and some of the disciples run away.

    272 | Luke 23-24: The Most Pontius Pilate

    272 | Luke 23-24: The Most Pontius Pilate

    Despite a slightly different order of events, Jesus meets his end without much on-page suffering at the end of Luke. Leading us to wonder, do Christians glorify his suffering? The potential for a spin-off shows itself, and the hints of what's to come has us excited about Acts, which is coming soon(ish)!

Great Way for Curious Minds to take in A Complex Piece

I have wanted to get the specifics of the Bible down for many years and after listening to other podcasts by these hosts I thought I might like this medium. I really enjoy taking on the sometimes monotonous task that is reading the Bible with these three. Dedeker (spelling) is off-putting for me- kind of dampens the mood at times. I find myself thinking, “okay we get it, you were raised ______ and you know a lot about the Bible.” But otherwise love these hosts and the format for taking in the Bible.

Just what I was looking for!

I’ve been wanting to get familiar with the Bible in a thorough yet low stakes way for a long time now, and this is PERFECT! Already knew I’d like the hosts from listening to their other stuff ;) thanks y'all!!!
