The language of the Bible can be a tough hurtle for people old and young. A Bible Break is a short, bingable podcast that provides audio of the Bible in a natural, relatable way. While staying true to the English Standard Version, voiceover artist Hannah Benson presents the Bible in language anyone can understand with a little talk about what happened after.

Episodes

1 Samuel Chapter 10: Saul is Annointed King 11.11.2025 9:26

What do donkeys, luggage and oil have in common? Apparently a lot. Tune in this week to 1 Samuel 10!

1 Samuel Chapter 9: Saul Meets Samuel 03.11.2025 9:09

Ever been out looking for your donkeys and some stranger invites you in for a meat-lovers, kingly feast? Oh. Well, that happens to Saul quite unexpectedly. Tune in for 1 Samuel 9!

1 Samuel Chapter 8: The King is Coming, The King is Coming 28.10.2025 6:59

"We want a king! Right now… We gonna find one, somehow…" (Jungle Jam fans, anyone?) Israel decides they don’t want to be ruled by an invisible deity that makes them shake in their boots; a human king seems much more…normal. And doable. But Samuel’s got a few warnings to make them absolutely sure.

1 Samuel Chapters 6 & 7: Please Please Take Back the Ark 21.10.2025 11:50

A two-fer! The Philistines want to give the ark back… but HOW? Tune in for this two-chapter episode of 1 Samuel 6 and 7.

What happens when the Ark of the Covenant is NOT with the Israelite people? Bad things. Ouchy things. Check it out.

1 Samuel Chapter 4: Eli’s End 07.10.2025 6:41

Hophni and Phineas get what’s coming to them…a war is coming. This one’s pretty graphic if you have kids!

1 Samuel Chapter 3: From the Mouth of Babes 07.10.2025 5:41

God has his first chat with the boy Samuel who keeps wondering where that voice is coming from. Eli wonders if something’s wrong with the kid.

What’s the worse thing you can here? “No one in your family is going to reach old age.” Tune in to hear one of the most beautiful prayers contrasted with the scariest of prophecies.

1 Samuel Chapter 1: Shenanigans begin 06.10.2025 9:21

Girl fight? Definitely. But Hannah shows how to fight well. She goes to battle on her knees. Elkinah is cool with the plan…on two conditions. Check out this first ever episode of The Bible Breakdown!

A Bible Break: Listen Here First 05.10.2025 3:37

A welcome to A Bible Break, a podcast with a little bit about the whys (to get used to the language of the Bible with today’s inflection), where we will start reading in the Bible (1 Samuel) and what version to use if you want to follow along (ESV). I guess now you don’t HAVE to listen. But it’s a good intro to who I am as well! I’m your host, Hannah Benson, and I’m SO GLAD you’re here.
