tend: a bible podcast

Religion EN ↓ 200 episodes

We believe God plants the seeds of faith in every life. Any good gardener knows that those seeds need tending if the seed is to produce vegetables or fruit. Faith needs to be tended. Our goal is to provide a weekly dose of tending for our faith and others, who might choose to join us as we live into the way of Jesus.
