Description

Welcome! You can start with today's episode or go back to the beginning of any of these five seasons: Season 1 - Matthew (Began October, 2019 - Episodes 1-800) Season 2 - One Book of the Bible Per Day (Began January, 2023) Season 3 - Esther (Began April 9, 2023) Season 4 - Nehemiah (Began January 1, 2024) Season 5 - Galatians (Current Season Began August 26, 2024) You can also check out the daily audio-only podcast on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@TenMinuteBibleHour Hey I'm Matt, and if you're interested in understanding the Bible better and you prefer your Christianity quick and punchy with a healthy side of humor, and an equally healthy side of me not telling you what to do, we're probably going to get along great. This is my podcast where we pick a book of the Bible and then break it down one part at a time every weekday morning.
