Take 2 Theology is a twice-weekly podcast hosted by Michael Mott and Zachary Hale, elders at Charleston Bible Church. Each episode explores Scripture, theology, and Christian living through thoughtful conversations, interviews, and the occasional friendly debate. Whether we’re walking through a book of the Bible, tackling a tough doctrinal topic, or drafting our favorite children’s Bible songs March Madness-style, our aim is the same: to think deeply about God’s truth and invite others to do the same.
