“Find here Pastor Finnegan's erudition and energy for the task of telling what the beloved 19th Century hymn calls "the old, old story"*. This capable scholar and devoted Christian seems to effortlessly balance the weight of knowledge he carries with a down-to-earth expository style that avails his learning and perceptions to the listener intent upon his words.
There's a bright future for this podcast, but it's still early in Pastor Finnegan's online ministry. With the accretion of his luminous lectures, a fifth star will appear in the rating constellation already ascribed.
Thank you, Pastor, for the light you cast.
*Tell me the old, old story of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and His glory, of Jesus and His love.
Tell me the story simply, as to a little child,
For I am weak and weary, and helpless and defiled.
Refrain
Tell me the old, old story, tell me the old, old story,
Tell me the old, old story, of Jesus and His love.
Tell me the story slowly, that I may take it in,
That wonderful redemption, God’s remedy for sin.
Tell me the story often, for I forget so soon;
The early dew of morning has passed away at noon.
Refrain
Tell me the story softly, with earnest tones and grave;
Remember I’m the sinner whom Jesus came to save.
Tell me the story always, if you would really be,
In any time of trouble, a comforter to me.
Refrain
Tell me the same old story when you have cause to fear
That this world’s empty glory is costing me too dear.
Yes, and when that world’s glory is dawning on my soul,
Tell me the old, old story: “Christ Jesus makes thee whole.”
Refrain”Read full review »

“What a great podcast. This podcast delves deep into many concepts that we as Christians often question or wonder or simply just need more clarification on.
