What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I cannot begin to express how happy I am to have found this podcast the way you explain everything is incredible. It’s like you are reading my mind. I just started this podcast in 2025. I went back to 2022 to the very beginning. God is definitely working through you and I just so appreciate what you’re doing here. It’s been so uplifting and helpful to finally have what I’ve been feeling put into words, and to then have them reflected in scripture. You are truly an amazing disciple!

cmoerles · Jun 2025

I have felt myself grow distant from God in the last few years of my life. I recently began craving a new, strong relationship with the Lord. I started searching podcasts to change the information I was feeding my mind and soul daily. I gave Hearing Jesus a go, and instantly fell in love with the show. I’ve been bingeing the show for a few weeks now and almost caught up. If you are seeking a better connection with God and better content to feed your soul, this is it.

Allison F W · May 2025

I have been distant from God and I was at work one morning and something enticed me to look for a podcast that I could listen to while I work in regards to God. I was looking for a podcast that reads the Bible AND explains what we read because I didn’t have time to read it nor could I understand it. I listened to a couple of other Biblical podcasts and I ended up leaving it. I found this podcast and I have been with Rachel since I first heard her podcast. She is amazing! Reading the Bible while explaining it. It has touched my soul and heart where I started yearning to close my distance from God. Her voice is gentle and calming and I love her background. Her prayers are healing.

Jadey I · Apr 2025

I can’t tell you how much closer this podcast and deeper dive into scriptures has brought me to Jesus. I couldn’t recommend this podcast more. Rachel is a passionate teacher with a passion for scripture and a heart on fire for the truths of the Bible!
