Customer Reviews
Informative but not stuffy
This is a light-hearted podcast with an academic pedigree. Love hearing about the apocrypha as though I’m sitting at the pub over a beer. It’s a great show.
Great intro to some unjustly neglected books
Even having been Orthodox for 20 years, I had never really paid attention to the “extra” books now in my Bible. This podcast is a chance to change that! Joel and Jamey bring out the main points in the text and explain their relevance to our lives, often using commentary from Orthodox Church Fathers. Love the new format interspersing reading by of the text by another of my favorite podcasters, Fr. Alexis Kouri.
Love it!
Interesting, witty, and informative. Highly recommend.
