  3. The Letter to the Philippians

    · 37 min

    I heard a rumor that the book of Philippians was one of the happiest books in the Bible... in spite of it being written from prison! When I heard that, I knew I had to record it next. It is full of amazing promises…

  7. The Arrival of the Messiah (feat. Water to Wine)

    · 33 min

    For an overdue episode, I had to make it a good one. To be honest, I kept putting off episodes about Jesus. Why? Because I don't feel worthy of reading His stories and words and bringing them to life. I wanted it to be…
