  • A Podcast about the Bible

    Every two weeks, from two different countries, the two hosts of the Two Texts podcast pick two biblical texts to talk about. Each episode we pick one text to talk about, which invariably leads to us talking about two texts and often many more.

    Dr John Andrews and Dr David Harvey share a mutual fascination with the Bible. Simple yet complex; ancient yet relevant; challenging yet comforting. But one thing that fascinates them consistently is that, like a kaleidoscope, no matter how many times they look at it there is something new, fresh and exciting to talk about.

    This podcast is designed for you regardless of how much or how little you've read the Bible. Grab a hot beverage, a notepad (or app), and a Bible, sit back, listen, enjoy, and learn to also become fascinated (or grow your fascination) with this exciting, compelling and mysterious book.

    John and David are two friends who love teaching the Bible and have both been privileged enough to be able to spend their careers doing this - in colleges, universities, churches, homes and coffee shops. The two of them have spent extended periods of time as teaching staff and leadership in seminary and church contexts. John has regularly taught at David's church, and there was even a point where John was David's boss!

    Nowadays David is a Priest and Pastor in Calgary, Canada, and John teaches and consults for churches in the UK and around the world. They're both married with children (John 3, David 1) and in John's case even grandchildren. In their down time you'll find them cooking, reading, running or watching football (but the one thing they don't agree on is which team to support).

    If you want to get in touch with either of them about something in the podcast you can reach out on podcast@twotexts.com or by liking and following the Two Texts podcast on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. If you enjoy the podcast, we’d love it if you left a review or comment where you’re listening from – and if you really enjoyed it, why not share it with a friend?

A Podcast about the Bible

Every two weeks, from two different countries, the two hosts of the Two Texts podcast pick two biblical texts to talk about. Each episode we pick one text to talk about, which invariably leads to us talking about two texts and often many more.

Dr John Andrews and Dr David Harvey share a mutual fascination with the Bible. Simple yet complex; ancient yet relevant; challenging yet comforting. But one thing that fascinates them consistently is that, like a kaleidoscope, no matter how many times they look at it there is something new, fresh and exciting to talk about.

This podcast is designed for you regardless of how much or how little you've read the Bible. Grab a hot beverage, a notepad (or app), and a Bible, sit back, listen, enjoy, and learn to also become fascinated (or grow your fascination) with this exciting, compelling and mysterious book.

John and David are two friends who love teaching the Bible and have both been privileged enough to be able to spend their careers doing this - in colleges, universities, churches, homes and coffee shops. The two of them have spent extended periods of time as teaching staff and leadership in seminary and church contexts. John has regularly taught at David's church, and there was even a point where John was David's boss!

Nowadays David is a Priest and Pastor in Calgary, Canada, and John teaches and consults for churches in the UK and around the world. They're both married with children (John 3, David 1) and in John's case even grandchildren. In their down time you'll find them cooking, reading, running or watching football (but the one thing they don't agree on is which team to support).

    2024/12/19

    In which John and David discuss Paul’s arrival in Jerusalem and the tensions that immediately confront him in Acts 21. We explore themes of isolation, accusations, and the challenges of bridging the gap between law and grace.

    What are the broader implications of Paul’s ministry, the gospel’s disruptive nature, and the perennial human struggle to control the movement of the Spirit?

    Listen to David's conversation with Luke-Acts scholar Martin Mittlestadt on Chris Green's Speakeasy Theology

  • Word and Spirit | Disruptive Presence 119
    2024/12/17

    Drop us a text message to say hi and let us know what you think of the show. (Include your email if you’d like us to reply)

    In which John and David reflect on the tension between the Spirit’s guidance and human interpretation. Acts 21 considers Agabus, a prophet who delivers an unembellished yet weighty word to Paul. Together, we discuss the role of prophecy in the Book of Acts and consider how the modern church often wrestles with the prophetic.

    We explore the importance of humility in prophetic ministry, the dangers of manipulation, and how Christians can test and discern prophetic words without cynicism or naivety. Paul’s calm acceptance of Agabus’ message offers a model of trust and accountability for us today: “The Lord’s will be done.”

  • The Cost of Obedience | Disruptive Presence 118
    2024/12/05

    Drop us a text message to say hi and let us know what you think of the show. (Include your email if you’d like us to reply)

    In which John and David reflect on the tension in Acts 21, where Paul is compelled by the Spirit to go to Jerusalem while others, through the same Spirit, urge him not to go. We explore the nature of prophecy, the cost of discipleship, and how Paul’s resolve mirrors Jesus’ journey to the cross. Along the way, we trace Luke’s narrative arc, connecting Mary’s submission, Jesus’ obedience, and Paul’s determination.
