Just love the way Justin tells the stories of the Old Testament. It opens the Word in a new way and should encourage you to reread those stories again! Don’t miss out!!

These stories ignite my imagination and make the Bible stories that I have read about come alive!

Plausible interpretations of Bible accounts that give breath to the stories we know and love. Wonderful musical scores and enlivened story telling. Great work.

Holy Ghost Stories is like an old fashioned radio show. Every episode is suspenseful, beautifully told, and weaves God’s love and mercy in so wonderfully. I can’t stop listening!

Chilling. Triumphant. Incredibly moving. A must-listen for all.

A friend sent me this podcast and I loved it as soon as I heard it. By far the best story telling podcast I have ever heard. I love the deferent perspective Justin gives in the biblical stories. Great job and thank you for sharing your art with all of us who listen.

Justin’s storytelling with Kendall’s music brings life to the stories of the Bible. They are no longer simply historical facts to memorize but emotional adventures to get lost in.

This is the best Bible story teller besides my own Pastor I believe I have ever heard. This Guy puts so much thought and work into this podcast and it shows. I’ve shared with all I know that I think would like it.

I love how Justin takes us to the scene of these events and reminds us that there were real people with real feelings experiencing these things in real time. Fantastic way to meditate on the messages God has for us in recording these events, and always points to Him as the prime mover in these...Read full review »

I cried through the story of Naomi packing up all she has to and from Moab today. The writing, the storytelling, the scoring - it’s all stunning. I can’t get enough! Thank you, Justin, for sharing your God-given gifts with us. I’ve shared with everyone I can think of!

I found this podcast by searching for “Holy Ghost”. I was blessed to find this treasure. There is but one “Ghost” in this whole world and it was released when Jesus died at Calvary. It is holy and it is the comforter of all those who trust in Jesus. I’ve been praying for a different way to fall...Read full review »

This podcast is AMAZING!!!! Every episode is an adventure into the stories we’ve heard since childhood but with a humanistic perspective and exciting the curiosity we may not have even had. I love how Justin clearly puts boundary between what’s written, what’s implied, and what’s left to...Read full review »

I love Holy Ghost Stories! The portions from Scripture seem to be very accurate, and the other details are well researched and add so much color to the story. It causes me to connect with these people and their circumstances like never before. I drive a long distance to work and it’s great for my...Read full review »

I don’t need to tell you about how amazing of a storyteller Justin is, everybody else here already wrote that. And they’re right! I’m here to tell you about the fact that Justin is leading us listeners into beautiful encounters with The Most High. Justin’s spiritual gift of storytelling puts skin...Read full review »

I’m not sure what I was expecting. Whatever it was, this exceeded my expectations. I already find the account of Ruth to be soo full! It has every plot element a story could need: tragedy, conflict, history, redemption, and, of course, meaningful impact on the future with ties to the past. All...Read full review »

He makes these old, sometimes tired, stories come alive
Geggen12340 via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 11/09/22
If you're a Christian or not the way he tells these stories grasps and holds your attention. I can imagine what the artists was like as a kid. Around a bon fire. But seriously his vocabulary and the curating of music for the show all becomes one amazing story to hear. He goes behind the...Read full review »

Imagine wrapping the poetry and beauty of story around the reality of a living God—it’s better than a bacon wrapped jalepeno popper baby! It may get spicy, but you’re gonna like it!
Super dub via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/22
The Bible is living already and Justin Gerhardt has a way of helping us to see it take shape in your mind of stories we have heard and studied our whole lives! Such a wonderful podcast!
raychull72 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/22
I have never heard the Old Testament stories told with such passion, detail, care, and thoughtfulness.

And that is what this...Read full review »

Just discovered this podcast. I started at season 3 but skipped back to the beginning. I’m only about 4 episodes in but I find myself anxiously waiting for the next time I can listen.

I cannot begin to express how much I have enjoyed this podcast! Justin is an amazingly talented story teller!

This is truly one of the most well done podcasts I have ever had the privilege to listen to! We leave every episode inspired to read the text and explore the elements of the story we sometimes neglect to explore. The amount of study and work Justin puts into each episode has the ability to keep...Read full review »

I really enjoy these stories. I am sometimes on the edge of my seat even though I have read the story many times. I frequently lead Bible studies and this will certainly enhance my teaching. I also recommend this to other people
bws7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/22
I have read and reread the Bible many times, and yet these stories still challenge me to look at the passage in a new light. Thank you, and well done!
FamikyofFun via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/22
I love God and His Word, and Justin makes the stories of the Bible come to life in a new way for me. This is storytelling at its finest - real stories of real people told in a relevant and thought-provoking way.

This show gives God’s word a faithful rendering in the spirit of which it was written and passed down by oral tradition.
bengoalkeeper via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/18/21
Had me sold at the Hagar & Ishmael episode—I about cry everytime I hear it. Justin does such a fantastic job of providing all the background details necessary to make some of the more troubling passages make sense in light of God’s character… and more than that, he frames the wording of...Read full review »

Justin has a gift, no doubt about it. He paints pictures in your mind with his story telling ability. He’s bringing theses stories of old back to life in exciting ways. He perfectly depicts how horror and hope dance side by side on the pages of the Old Testament. These stories are intended to...Read full review »

Ok so I have my own story…one day whilst in a hot tub in Hawaii, I met a sweet couple who were fellow Christ followers.

HGS is hands down my new favorite podcast! I LOVE being able to step inside the Bible stories I’ve read my entire life and experience them in a fresh, new, culturally-accurate light. Getting to hear, feel, see, and imagine what the men and women of the Bible might have experienced has...Read full review »

I have loved all the episodes so far. Got up really early for this one. This one was one of my favorite. I love reading about this king and all he ended up doing for Israel. Justin so eloquently showed how God prepared a person he knew would be flawed to gain great power and influence and do...Read full review »

I just listened to my first "Holy Ghost Story" "The Sound and the Fury" about Samson. This was the first part of Samson's life and so I'm sure part 2 is coming! I guess these are on video too on Patreon and I am seriously thinking about becoming a Patron. Along with the...Read full review »

As a person who loves all things Bible, theology, story, details, music, art, and God, this podcast is such a beautiful thing for me. I love to read and study the Bible, but sometimes I just want to be read to and have the stories from the Bible wash over me. Listening to HGS is how I rest while...Read full review »

I loved it! Your voice is perfect for storytelling. You bring the Bible to life. I was blessed by your sermon last week. (Kaufman).

Great stories told with a deep sense of emotion and intensely descriptive prose. Well worth your time!! May be a bit too much for younger ears, but my 12 year old loves them.
Idkysb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/19/21
Justin amazes me with his work he must put in to each one of these. The stories are from our ALMIGHTY CREATOR, but the way HE uses Justin to tell them to us is nothing short of awesomeness. Truly awesome. I am so excited about the things to come for and from Justin, as he continues to use his...Read full review »

Justin does an outstanding job crafting this podcast. The music, the pacing, the word choices, the history, and and obvious love for the stories themselves combine for an engrossing, creative, and faithful experience of the biblical narrative.
