O tomto podcastu
Modern Mind, Ancient Book helps curious people understand Scripture in its ancient Jewish and historical world so they can know Jesus and walk His Way.
Interesting ideas. Ancient stories. Better questions.
Start with short discoveries. Explore real human questions through Scripture, covenant wisdom, and Jewish context. Study whole biblical books through careful, book-by-book teaching. Along the way, we distinguish what the text says from historical background, interpretation, and application.
For seekers, new believers, longtime students, and anyone who senses there is more depth and coherence in the Bible than they were taught.
Topics include Bible study, the Jewish context of Jesus, biblical history, Torah, Prophets and Writings, Christian discipleship, topical teaching, and book studies.
Find the Way—Meet Rabbi Jesus.
Walk the Way — Modern Mind, Ancient Book.
New teaching weekly.
