Podcast Recommendations
We know we don’t have all the answers, so we wanted to give a list of podcasts that could answer some questions you may have about Christianity, Jesus, churches, and more.
Questioning Christianity: Tim Keller
This podcast addresses the fundamental questions of life (proof, meaning, satisfaction, hope, justice, morality) by comparing the resources different belief systems have. The argument is that Christianity actually has better resources to make sense of life experience than secularism or any other religious belief.
The Bible Project
This podcast features in-depth conversations about the Bible and theology. They work through books of the Bible, biblical backgrounds, and complex theological concepts in a simple, understandable manner. There are 100s of episodes, so there is plenty of concept to consume.
The Bible Recap
Tara Leigh Cobble walks through little chunks of the Bible every day in a short, less than 10-minute podcast. This way you can quickly get explanations to what you’re reading and easily squeeze it into your commute.
This Cultural Moment: Bridgetown Church + Red Church
This podcast features John Mark Comer, pastor of Bridgetown Church in Portland, and Mark Sayers, pastor of Red Church in Melbourne. Both are highly intellectual cultural analysts, and break down how Western culture is shaping minds and how the Gospel and Christianity can fit into it.
Timothy Keller Sermons by Gospel in Life
This podcast features a list of sermons by Timothy Keller, and goes through a whole host of topics. He is the most culturally relevant and Gospel-centric pastor around, so you know we had to shout him out.
John Mark Comer Teachings
John Mark Comer is a fantastic cultural analyst and brilliant Biblical thinker. He specializes in analyzing how the Biblical practices of prayer, fasting, meditation, etc. fit into the modern Western world.
Rebuilders: Red Church
Mark Sayers is one of the most intelligent and talented cultural commentators alive, and in this podcast he covers all sorts of modern day issues – both in culture and in real life – and how Biblical theology can actually lead one to fullness of life.
Texas RUF
RUF is a campus ministry sponsored by the Presbyterian Church of America, and this chapter at the University of Texas at Austin is one of its best. It was started by John Trapp, one of the big inspirations for Off the Clock. Many of his sermons are on here, as well as his successor, Jordan Griesbeck, who is also fantastic.
