Recommendation

Hearing the Bible really well read is a thrilling experience - but, sadly, an all too rare one. The Backyard Bard delivers the word of God to us in the way God meant it to be delivered to us: with impacting faithfulness. As you listen and watch you'll be drawn into the text of Scripture, and you'll be given a wonderful model of Bible reading. We've had them minister at BCV, and we'd have them back!
