Happy Birthday Podcast Parables!
Happy First Birthday Podcast Parables!
One year ago, the vision was born to create a podcast that would tell the stories of the Bible in a unique and special way. Because of the goodness and graciousness of God, here we are– 68 episodes in, hours and hours of content created, four seasons worth of Bible explored, and 40 Bible characters interacted with.
Join me in this celebratory episode where we pause, reflect back, jump for joy, and continue to walk forward in faith.
Thank you, listeners!
“I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 3:14
