Description

The beauty in the Bible can be challenging to appreciate, and that's where I, an enthusiastic English Major, come in. Together, we explore the dang good drama, bizarre ancient context, and creative artistry in the Bible. Taking a different angle every two weeks, we approach a Bible story through a series of fun and accessible 20-minute episodes. Then, because the best part of any good story is getting to talk about it with friends, I invite a guest to come and chat about it. If you're looking for a fresh take on familiar stories or are curious about how Biblical authors used irony, symbolism, and humor to make a point, listen and follow The Bible and the English Major today!
