Hello Mr. Christensen,
I have been listening to your bible study podcasts and I absolutely love them. However, I must tell you how surprised I was to discovered that you are Lutheran. My in-laws are Lutheran and don’t seem to enjoy much of the word, what I mean is that they don’t seem to care for long services. Your podcasts are full of rich content and I would like to know what version of the bible are you reading from?
Janette
I use the NIV, New International Version.
And call me Chris. Even my father won’t answer to Mr. Christensen 🙂
hello chris I really enjoy the bible study on spotify, it seems they have no way of fixing how your episodes are playing because as of now I can not play any of them in order but as soon as I press on my own music playlist boom it drops right in order, was wondering if there is anyway you can fix this
No sorry, that’s something I think you need to ask Spotify
Hello Chris, in what way are you qualified to oversee bible study ? Did you go to school for theology ? Have you been ordained or are you answering a ‘calling’ ? Just would like to know as I do find your podcast somewhat titillating and wish not to be misinformed. Thank you
I did not go to school for theology nor have I been ordained. I have just read and taught from scripture since about 1976.
The Holy Spirit is with you my brother. Keep on preaching and May your working forever be fruitful in the eyes of our Lord Jesus CHRIST, Amen.
Thanks!
