The Bread of the Word Podcast

My name is Tyler, and I am your resident “Lo-Fi Theologian.” Borrowing from the imagery of Lo-Fi music, I endeavor to be gentle yet substantive, simple but never simplistic. Weekly episodes will walk through Books of the Bible slowly and reverently, aiming to see Christ in all the Scriptures.

If you are interested in the Bible, but tired of the pomp and pride, this is a welcome place. I have no formal credentials to speak of, but I find myself a lifelong learner of God's Word.

Let consider His Word together.
