Wednesday in the Word
Religion & Spirituality Podcas
Wednesday in the Word is the podcast that explains what the Bible means and how we figure it out. Unlike a traditional sermon, the focus is on learning to figure out what the Bible says. In addition to going verse by verse through the Bible, we go concept by concept focusing on what the original author intended to say in context. We also compare interpretative options and talk about how to choose between them. This podcast has no advertisements or donation requests. It is free to all who want to learn. In each episode I try to explain the author’s meaning for a set number of verses in plain language and model how I reached those conclusions. My website contains free tools and resources to improve your study skills. More at: WednesdayintheWord.com
