Unshaken Saints

by Jared Halverson

Seismic shifts in the religious and secular landscapes are destabilizing the faith of millions. Join religious educator Jared Halverson as he explores restored scripture, doctrine, history, and practice; examines patterns and pitfalls in navigating faith crisis; and wrestles with ways to make your faith unshaken. ___________ Hello my friends, I’m Jared Halverson and this is Unshaken. I’ve spent my life studying the scriptures, my professional career teaching them, and my education at a Bible-belt divinity school exploring ways they have been used and abused, attacked and defended. And I’d like to share with you some of the things I’ve learned. In March of 2020 I created a YouTube channel called Unshaken, and six months later we hit our one millionth view, as people around the world are eagerly pursuing an unshaken faith in God by immersing themselves in His word. More and more viewers have been asking for an audio-only version of the lessons on Unshaken, and this podcast is my attempt to meet those needs. What it lacks in the visuals shown on YouTube, or the polished sound of a podcast-only production, it hopefully makes up for in its accessibility to the drivers, joggers, and multi-taskers out there who want to study their scriptures “on the go.” To you, welcome to our verse-by-verse, Come Follow Me study of the scriptures. I pray that it helps your faith in Christ become unshaken. __________ Disclaimer: The content of these podcasts is the sole responsibility of their creator and does not reflect the official position of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or the Church Educational System.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is absolutely one of my favorite Come Follow Me podcasts. I have been listening to him since he was doing YouTube lessons for his Institute students and now he’s one of my favorite Education Week presenters. I could listen to him all day and appreciate that it feels like I’m taking a class at BYU in the comfort of my own home when listening to the podcast.

Alexandraify · May 2025

This is absolutely my favorite podcast. I look forward to each new episode. I learn so much. My understanding, knowledge, and faith has grown by listening to Jared’s explanations of the scriptures. Thank you!

Aupdike · Apr 2025

Sorry for the pun in the title, but Jared’s podcast is so well organized and thought out that it really is as satisfying as well-seasoned meat. He gets to the point of what’s most important in each episode of study, laying out an overview of what we’ll look at and who’s involved, which I really appreciate. I like the pace at which he speaks and the timber of his voice - thank you for giving us a wealth of spiritual meat to chew Jared!

kldoodlebug · Apr 2025

I can’t explain how enlightening and inspiring Jared Halverson’s insights are. He has taught me what faith really is and how it’s not believing in it all without worry or waver, it’s allowing yourself to believe, even when it seems too hard. That’s faith. And that’s a good place to then be able to grow and gain more of a testimony of it all. Thank you, Bro Hal!
