Fresh Text

Pastor-scholars walk through the revised common lectionary.

About the show

Fresh Text is a weekly podcast in which Pastor-scholars discuss a scripture passage and swap sermon starter ideas. This weekly podcast is especially (though not exclusively) useful for preachers who follow revised common lectionary. But we hope it would be edifying and/or enjoyable for any listener!!!
