The Bible Study Podcast, episode 744.

Today, the Bible Study podcast continues the study of the theology of COVID with part two.

Welcome to the Bible study podcast.

I'm your host, Chris Christensen.

Last week, we started this shorter study on the theology of COVID.

theology, because remember, we're not going to find any specific verses in the Bible that are going to
