Show Notes

The resource list for this episode may be nearly as long as the Bible itself! Kristin and Ashley nerd out on Bible translations, perspectives, tools and their best suggestions for how you can better understand the Bible as you read.

If you somehow need more resources - or have questions about what we talked about - we probably have even more, just ask!
