Welcome to Rational Faiths’ newest podcat series, The CES Podcast (for the rest of us), with Bible scholar, Dr. Sheldon Greaves and his co-host, Michael Barker. Dr. Greaves and Mike Barker will be looking at this year’s seminary and institute curriculum, which covers the New Testament, and will be distilling a week’s worth of lessons and readings down to a half hour podcast. Episode 1 will cover Matthew chapters 1-5.
Please leave us feedback if you like what we are doing or if there is an area upon which we can improve.

I am excited beyond words. I haven’t had a chance to listen to this, but I listened to your entire Old Testament series and those were seriously brilliant. Just unbelievably good. I hoped for nothing more than to have you do the New Testament as well.
I look forward to making the time to listen to this soon, and then sharing it broadly. Particularly excited since my oldest children (twins) just started seminary this year and we’re doing it by home study (we’re currently in India, in a branch whose boundaries are roughly the size Texas…) so just so excited to have these.
Thank you for your kind words! I’m really enjoying working with Michael on this, so it’s good to hear that you and your family are getting something out of the podcast.
