  • What bible are you reading?

    I’m a Sunday School teacher trying to prepare for my lesson tomorrow. It is Exodus 5:1-4. First you said 1-5. And then what you read was not any Bible verse I could find. I use a bible app and so have access to many, many Bible versions. I wanted to follow along in the Bible but was unable to. Very frustrating

  • Podcast has potential

    It just never flows and Amber interrupts a lot. Gia is constantly saying ummm. They need some help with their communication skills.

    This podcast does have great potential. The gentlemen that come on to share answers are great though. Amber is not the right person for this podcast!
