Customer Reviews
Well done… suggestions
This is a great resource but awkward at times, in jokes, ums and ahs, etc. Perhaps you are still remote from each other? Yet the spontaneity is a great strength, if you remember the urgency with which we listen as we prepare sermons in harrowing times.
I wrote the above paragraph many weeks ago and perhaps didn’t send it. But I remembered it while listening to wp in this Lenten season, noting especially the depth of comments and sincerity that has come through to me in this and past sessions. I suppose we always listen more intently when someone appears to speak from the heart. Thanks for all y’all do, y’all!
Scholarship and humor-Both essential
Wonderful podcast. Excellent scholarship, humor and preaching ideas. All equally needed and I especially appreciate how you are helping us think about texts through the lens of COVID 19.
Serious Bible Scholars
As a Lay Pastor this gets deep in the theological weeds at times. I listen because it makes me think and learn. It is an access that I enjoy and appreciate greatly. My heart felt thanks to the all those involved. I hope to meet some these friends in person some day.
