Description
Pastor Bob Switzer has been known for being a biblical story-teller. He has made characters from the Bible come to life in relatable and often comedic ways that resonate with the listener.
The Epic Narrative is an opportunity to hear Bob tell the COMPLETE stories of characters from the Bible as (as the name suggests) an epic narrative! Join us as each tale gives us a richer understanding of the people we know (or may not know!) from the Bible!
