Episode 100!

I need to say that again.
Episode 100!

Almost two years into the journey and we're still only  15 books into the 66 book epic that is the Bible.

Still, why rush. You see a lot more from a slower bus.

You join us at the start of the Book of Ezra, an exiled Jew who has returned to Jerusalem to rebuild its temple, a project that is not without its obstacles.

Fun fact: Ezra probably also wrote the Books of Kings and Chronicles.

Chapters covered: Ezra 1-4

Written and produced by Chas Bayfield
Music by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins Music
