Reviews from Listeners
I stumbled upon the Wednesday in the Word website while googling for a free pdf of Matthew to mark up as I studied. And wow I’m so glad I did. I decided to check out the podcast and honestly expected just some superficial, bland, content. I was pleasantly surprised! The episodes are such a nice balanced summary to complement my own study. I love how Krisan touches on scholarly debates and many finer points of exposition, but never misses the “big picture” and the point of what is being written to us. She filers through a LOT of information for us busy Bible lovers and points us to content that will really enhance our understanding. For example, in her introduction to Matthew, she explains the differences in how the synoptic gospels and the gospel of John present the relationship between Jesus and Jerusalem. It is fascinating and adds such depth of understanding and meaning! I know each episode represents a lot of study and hard work on her part because she synthesizes so much information. Thanks Krisan for feeding us so well.
Wednesday in the Word is an excellent source of solid Biblical teaching. I appreciate how each lesson is claer, challenging and opens my eyes every time to grow in a better understanding of what Jesus Christ has done for me.
This is such an excellent program. I listen every week.
