Basic, broad introduction.

Boring, VERY redundant and very basic. If you are already familiar with these subjects and looking for more depth, this is not for you. Performance was fine. Didn’t sound computerized but the text sounds like an AI generated, boring and simplistic explanation.

A Great Overview of Nag Hammodi

The perfect companion to get your head wrapped around what the nag himmadi scriptures are all about. This gives us back what the church robbed from the bible.
