Spoken Gospel

Every page of the Bible is about Jesus. Not just the Gospels, but the Law, the Prophets, Job's whirlwind and Jonah's fish. On the Spoken Gospel Podcast, David Bowden and Christine Kazar take one passage at a time and read it slowly, in its own world, until they find where it leads: to Christ.


This is a real conversation, not a lecture. Hebrew and Greek words, ancient history, the church fathers and the Bible's echoes of itself, all in service of one question: where is the gospel here? With episodes on every book of the Bible, it's a place to go deep without getting lost, whether you're preparing to teach or simply want to love your Bible more.


Spoken Gospel is a nonprofit that equips the church to speak the gospel out of every corner of Scripture through films, devotionals and podcasts. Everything we make is free. Find more at spokengospel.com.
