If you have never been a pastor in a church with all that pastors have to do, and then you listen to podcasters all week in their Bible teaching, and then you go to listen to your pastor, and then you are critical and look down on your pastor.

Your pastors do a whole lot more than have the opportunity to study and stand up and preach on Sunday.

To evaluate your pastor on the basis of guys that are the Michael Jordans, you know, the George

Brett's of the Bible study and Bible teaching world. It's not fair to your pastor.

Hey friends, welcome back to another episode of Theology Rom. My guest today is my friend, Dr. John

Whitaker, local here in the Boise area,

although we still did this via Riverside on Zoom. Could have just hung out in person and hit record,

but we decided to do it virtually. John is a former pastor, church planner, and Bible college

professor who now teaches the Bible through his amazing podcast, the listeners commentary.

Listenerscommentary.com or go to your

Apple podcast app and type in the listeners commentary. It's an audio commentary, which provides clear

down-to-earth teaching through the books of the New Testament. John has recently completed

teaching through the entire New Testament for his podcast.

Took him six years to do that. And he has now moved on to the Old Testament,

somewhere in the middle of the book of Exodus. I cannot more highly recommend this resource.

It is used by seminary professors, as you'll hear about in this episode. It is also used by

people in majority world countries

who's, you know, where English is like the third language. Okay. So a wide range of people

that are benefiting from this. If you check it out, you'll see why it's incredibly thorough,

clear, and down to earth and in-depth, but also simple and accessible.

It's so good.

So we talk about his podcast.
