In which John and David  navigate the aftermath of the Jerusalem Council in Acts 16, where Paul's trials in Lystra pave the way for Timothy's introduction. Be prepared to uncover the critical moments that steered the early church's expansion and how Timothy's backstory is intertwined with the redemptive journey of the Christian community.

Our dialogue takes a heartfelt turn, examining the profound connection between Paul and Timothy. Through their story, we gain a window into the essence of spiritual mentorship and its power to shape the church. Discover Timothy's transformation into the quintessential pastor as we highlight the influence of Paul's letters and the virtues essential for church leadership. This relationship, both personal and spiritual, offers timeless lessons for today's faith leaders.

Finally, we grapple with the gripping concept of gospel freedom through Timothy's controversial circumcision. The episode dissects the strategic moves made by Paul and Timothy  to ensure the gospel resonated across cultures—a testament to their commitment to 'becoming all things to all people.' Reflect on the pivotal sacrifices that have fortified the church's foundation and how this principle can guide contemporary churches. Join us for this thought-provoking journey, where tradition, transformation, and the cost of discipleship collide.

Two Texts

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.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 [email protected] 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?
