  • Episode 195: New Christian Fiction Books Releasing in May 2024
    Apr 25 2024

    Here are some of the Christian fiction books that I could find that are releasing in May 2024. These are books that are listed on Amazon as Christian fiction. I have not read them myself so I can’t tell you what the content is like, how much Christian faith they contain or whether they contain any content that is not appropriate. (If I’ve already read a book, or another in the series, and DNF’d it due to content then I haven’t included that book or books from that series in the list). Which of the books I mentioned would you most like to read?

  • Episode 193: FREE EBOOK!! Bible Studies on Matthew
    Apr 11 2024

    I’ve just published an ebook of Bible study questions and prompts on the book of Matthew.

    It contains 118 Bible studies with over 470 prompts and questions to help you dig deeper into the book of Matthew, grow in your knowledge of Jesus and learn more about how to be his disciple.

    The ebook is free to download and you can even send it to your Kindle device to read. You can also print off a copy for yourself or your local church/Bible study. However, you must not sell it in any format.I pray it helps you to get started with your own Bible study of Matthew.
