About Our Studio

Hebrews 12:1 says, “Therefore, since we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let’s rid ourselves of every obstacle and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with endurance the race that is set before us,”

This cloud of witnesses has grown over the past 2000 years since Christ ascended to Heaven. There are so many incredible stories of Christians overcoming intense persecution, entangling sins, depression, poverty, plague, and so much more!

We want to bring their stories to you. For we believe you will hear them and be inspired to pursue Christ wholeheartedly when you hear about these faithful followers of God.

I really like what you’re doing on this podcast. I was a little hesitant at first, but once I began listening I’ve enjoyed the history, and I like thinking through the complexities in “evaluating” these individuals’ spiritual lives. Rather than feeling “judgmental,” I’m learning to look at their lives through the histo...

Great show- nothing else quite like it!

I just listened to the beautiful eulogy/sermon that George Muller shared at his wife’s funeral. It was so beautiful and convicting. What a testimony of a Godly marriage. Also, you mentioned something about a book list - if you have suggestions for particular books, I’d love to hear them. Keep up the good work! And ...
