  • Foundational to my Faith

    Tim Mackie’s personal podcast as well as the BibleProject have been absolutely foundational to my faith and I honestly don’t know where I’d be in my faith without them. I love how he can take a passage that is seemingly straightforward and break it down so much and unpack an incredible amount of wisdom and ultimately truth. Mr. Tim Mackie, if you ever read this comment, thank you so much and no, I appreciate you and your work more than you can possibly know.

  • Life changing

    I found Tim a couple of years ago and find him incredibly insightful and approachable. I finally found a way to GET the Bible after trying and failing so many times. I asked God for a teacher and I believe that Tim is the answer to this prayer at this season in my life.

  • Jonah and the ………..

    I am loving this series on the prophet Jonah. I have been in church all my life - and have been in church ministry for 25 years - and have never heard what was really going on in this story. Excellent teaching - Thankyou Tim.
