    Send us a Text Message.CLICK HERE for the episode guide to help you connect with Scripture through this song.I love a good play on words. When you do a quick Google search of grave robbers, you discover it's a worldwide phenomenon usually perpetrated to take and profit from valuable artifacts or personal property. Crowder’s song “Grave Robber” attributes this title to God. But not in the way we normally think of a body snatcher who digs up graves for their own economic benefit. No. Our grave ...

He was a radio broadcaster famous for telling "the rest of the story." When Josiah Queen sings "The Prodigal," I'm sure you're thinking of the famous parable Jesus taught.

AWESOME Podcast!

I just love hearing a podcast that measures art through scripture! Michelle does a FANtastic job reaffirming, reflecting, and reminding us about scripture through the Christian songs we hear on the radio (is that still a thing, 😂). Michelle is faithful to spreading the good news of Jesus Christ through her careful study of scripture related to us through music.

HIGHLY recommend this podcast as an addition to your STUDY of scripture. Michelle even offers some GREAT tips for HOW to better study scripture that will add insight and understanding for the novice to the seasoned elder. Be blessed through Michelle’s work, y’all!

Definitely more than a song!

This podcast speaks to my heart. Connecting the songs I listen to and worship with, to the Word of God is very enriching. Michelle Nezat’s Bible Study method of B.I.T.E. is very much how I like to study the Word. Variety, multiple sources, context, cross references, definitions…all these and more. Episode #473 challenged me and connected the song to a portion of scripture I hadn’t considered - David moving the Ark using his preferences, not God’s preferences. Now to look at my life and see and see where I have used my preferences and not sought God about His preferences!

Very Enjoyable!

Just found this podcast! You very thoroughly analyze popular modern Christian songs and use Scripture to back up your statements. All I have to say is Hallelujah! Praise God! God Bless your ministry abundantly!
