  • So much knowledge

    This is great! I’ve been doing a chronological reading of the Bible, this follows that format which is really neat. I’ve been taking notes on things I didn’t understand or wanted to know more about, and this show is answering so many of them with the historical background and context for things that might not make much sense today. Love it!!

I can see the clothing, the people, the terrain. I have a better perception of who God is. As I read through the books I then listen to the corresponding episodes. It’s helped me understand the state of the times thousands of years ago and what I’m reading. The Bible can get a little confusing, especially in the Old Testament. I... more
