    George Weigel interview
    Good content but too often weak sound from George.
  • chezzbill35
    Delivered yet again
    WOF Ministries has again delivered another wonderful platform for the conversations this world so desperately needs: deep, knowledgable, hopeful, and useful. Each of those adjectives can scarcely be applied to any of the secular content being pumped out in the entertainment industry today. Give it a listen and let God do the rest.
  • petera256
    Smart and interesting
    This is yet another quality podcast from Word on Fire. I enjoy each episode. Matt Nelson writes great articles and makes for a great speaker/co-host as well.
  • MrLiterature
    Where did this go?
    Really enjoyed this podcast and its speakers. Was looking forward to more content, but there hasn’t been a new show in months! Word on Fire has the best content
  • Franmoragio
    Actual, confiable, excelente
    Simplemente de lo mejor. Todas las entrevistas son con personas preparadas, de buenos valores y de las cuales he aprendido mucho. Contagian la manera de ver la cultura como algo bueno y necesario, en la cual nos tenemos que sumergir y llevar a Cristo donde sea que estemos.
  • Great Podcaster
    Great Start
    This is a great start. From what you mentioned in the podcast, it sounds like there will be great content. Where would I be able to see some of the script, you gave some good reference to follow up on.
  • Mcoats13
