This is by far the best church history podcast and one of the best podcasts I can find because it’s clear, concise, organized and well-researched. It explores multiple angles of every problem. You will leave each episode with a solid understanding of the topic and a stronger testimony. Win win.
These guys can be very cheesey and corny but the information they share is life changing for me. Thanks.
This podcast has several strengths: 1. The hosts are not afraid to explore the hard or uncomfortable issues. 2. The hosts approach the topics from a faithful lens.
3. Their historical skills are strong; they recognize when we don’t have enough evidence to declare something as fact and explore the possible takeaways.
4. When they have guests, they are top tier experts.
