Bible & Bourbon with Pastor Ben

Religion EN ↓ 135 episodes

Some people think the Bible & Bourbon don't go together, but we disagree! Pastor Ben is a 9th-generation Kentuckian, born and raised in the heartland of bourbon. Over the generations, there are two things his family has passed down: a love of the Bible and a love of Bourbon. Each week, Ben invites you to grab a glass of your favorite libation and join him on a journey through scripture. Spend time learning not only about the words of scripture but also the historical and political context of each book of the Bible. No fire or brimstone, just the love of God and the spirits God helps us make!
