    277 | John 9-10: Making Mud

    John, spinner of yarns, is bringing the hits again this week! Starting off with another spit related story, discussions about sin and ableism, and a certain someone working on the Sabbath again. Discussions about Moses, the Holy Trinity, and The Feast of Dedication lead us to a stunning conclusion - we need sheep carrying lessons.

    275 | John 5-6: Jesus the Monologuer

    The book of John continues to delight us with new content and bolder, more polarizing Jesus! Porches make their New Testament debut, mats are carried on the wrong day, and some of the disciples run away.

    Join us as we explore the events of Easter weekend, teach Emily to count fence posts, and enjoy sassy Jesus' nonsensical answers. There's pondering to be done about who wrote John and when, who baptized who, and if Eugene's metaphors add to the story.

    273 | John 1-2: Little Jesus X

    The Book of John (not that John) jumps right into the action with new origin stories, Jesus' first public miracle, and the redemption of garbage grapes. Culty communes are formed, and a big budget revival begins.

Great Way for Curious Minds to take in A Complex Piece

I have wanted to get the specifics of the Bible down for many years and after listening to other podcasts by these hosts I thought I might like this medium. I really enjoy taking on the sometimes monotonous task that is reading the Bible with these three. Dedeker (spelling) is off-putting for me- kind of dampens the mood at times. I find myself thinking, “okay we get it, you were raised ______ and you know a lot about the Bible.” But otherwise love these hosts and the format for taking in the Bible.

Just what I was looking for!

I’ve been wanting to get familiar with the Bible in a thorough yet low stakes way for a long time now, and this is PERFECT! Already knew I’d like the hosts from listening to their other stuff ;) thanks y'all!!!
