Edifying

I’m a big fan of the Christianese podcast and am so glad it came back after a hiatus. Drew writes and speaks so well, and I appreciate the music and overall ~atmosphere~ of each episode. It’s the kind of mood that you want to settle into on your commute home. Without fail I find myself just thinking and wondering more about scripture and God and my place in the world after I listen. Makes meditating on scripture pretty easy! Highly recommend.

So glad you’re back!

I enjoy this podcast because the host seeks to be biblical (not political) on issues within the Christian faith and outside of it. The listener is challenged to think about things from a perspective that honors and loves God and loves people. And the production of the podcast is well done. Please keep it up!
