Welcome to the Biblical Context Matters Podcast! I’m Bree Blum, and I’ll be your host while we take a closer look at God’s Word through the eyes of the original audience - exploring the cultural, historical, geographical, linguistic, political, and religious influences upon the people and places of the Bible. Together we’ll learn how to intentionally study Scripture to get beyond surface-level knowledge and find a deeper belief and understanding of the heart of God. It’s possible, pinky promise!
