This is amazing

I am trying to learn the Bible outside of going to an actual church. This is absolutely amazing and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for your time spent putting this together. It is incredible. I just started Genesis and I’m already in love with it. Thank you!!

This is beautiful ❤️Thank you for being obedient and continuing to add more to the upload.

I Don't like that it automatically starts backwards and I can't figure out how to correct it.

Easy to follow

As I am learning to take in God's Word I am searching for a complimentary study guide. This podcast completely surprised me with the depth of meaning while being so easy to follow along.

I am definitely looking forward to continuing these episodes.
