Let's Talk About God: Recent Episodes
High Praises Church
Let's Talk About God is a podcast devoted to helping everyone understand God and the Bible. We believe that God has made Himself known to everyone, therefore everyone can understand Him. Hosts Chris Sustar and Evan Sustar are committed to breaking down the deep things of God in a simple, fun, and engaging way. Stay tuned for new episodes every second and fourth Monday of every month.
With this episode, we are beginning a new "season." During seasons, we will pick a broad theme and only produce episodes within that theme. Our first season is on the theme of "God's Attributes." We will be walking through God's attributes on a deeper level and explaining why learning about God's attributes matters for the Christian.
Due to technical difficulties, we had to upload this particular episode without any professional editing. We apologize in advance for any unusual audio issues.
