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.

This podcast is truly a breath of fresh air. Matt clearly states he’s here to share information and knowledge from the Bible and does so in a way that doesn’t push his own beliefs on others. He approaches the Bible from a historical perspective which helps give context to the passages. The bite-sized episodes keep me from getting bogged down and keeps me interested! Highly recommend.

Lots of historical context and perspective — but never boring! Also, Matt… can I call you Matt? We need to talk…. these side trails and deep dives? You know what I’m talking about. When you go off script or off topic to chase down a payoff or give some historical context, or find the ancient meaning of some obscure phrase or reference…. All of those. Those are delightful. Never stop doing that. Thank you.

I have loved listening to Matt and hearing his take on what the Bible is getting at and looking at how it fits in the narrative of the time. I have been listening since day one, and although Matt doesn’t know it he’s been teaching me about the Bible though out many stages of life (single, dating, married, and with baby) and both his content and more importantly the Bible are applicable throughout each stage. Most importantly I was promised a pizza party after 2 years of attendance. have we reached that point yet do I have enough attendance stars for that party? I know we reached the half way point, but it has been radio silence since then.

I have listened to most of the series on Matthew and I have learned so much about historical context and how the text would have been read originally. I have a lot more confidence when reading Matthew now that I’m getting the intended meaning. This is from someone who has attended Christian churches for 29 years. I love Matt’s perspective and openness to any question or doubt or viewpoint about the Bible. 2 years later edit: Also it’s like the Bible for dummies which is fun but once in a while there are these incredibly formative moments where I have to listen to the episode multiple times. Thanks Matt!
