  • Resumen

  • A Podcast about the Bible

    Every two weeks, from two different countries, the two hosts of the Two Texts podcast pick two biblical texts to talk about. Each episode we pick one text to talk about, which invariably leads to us talking about two texts and often many more.

    Dr John Andrews and Dr David Harvey share a mutual fascination with the Bible. Simple yet complex; ancient yet relevant; challenging yet comforting. But one thing that fascinates them consistently is that, like a kaleidoscope, no matter how many times they look at it there is something new, fresh and exciting to talk about.

    This podcast is designed for you regardless of how much or how little you've read the Bible. Grab a hot beverage, a notepad (or app), and a Bible, sit back, listen, enjoy, and learn to also become fascinated (or grow your fascination) with this exciting, compelling and mysterious book.

    John and David are two friends who love teaching the Bible and have both been privileged enough to be able to spend their careers doing this - in colleges, universities, churches, homes and coffee shops. The two of them have spent extended periods of time as teaching staff and leadership in seminary and church contexts. John has regularly taught at David's church, and there was even a point where John was David's boss!

    Nowadays David is a Priest and Pastor in Calgary, Canada, and John teaches and consults for churches in the UK and around the world. They're both married with children (John 3, David 1) and in John's case even grandchildren. In their down time you'll find them cooking, reading, running or watching football (but the one thing they don't agree on is which team to support).

    If you want to get in touch with either of them about something in the podcast you can reach out on podcast@twotexts.com or by liking and following the Two Texts podcast on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. If you enjoy the podcast, we’d love it if you left a review or comment where you’re listening from – and if you really enjoyed it, why not share it with a friend?

    In which John and David reflect on Paul’s testimony before King Agrippa, and explore how a public trial becomes a personal moment. We trace the narrowing focus of the narrative, Paul’s pastoral heart, and the surprising openness of Agrippa. The gospel, it seems, is never just on trial—it’s always inviting.

  • Jeremiah, Jesus and Paul | Disruptive Presence 132

    Jeremiah, Jesus and Paul | Disruptive Presence 132
    Mar 20 2025

    In which John and David reflect on Paul’s testimony before King Agrippa in Acts 26. As Paul recounts his story, they remember how his obsessive zeal to destroy the church is transformed into a life compelled by love and hope after his encounter with the risen Jesus. They consider the difference between power and true strength, the importance of integrity in leadership, and the providence of God working even within broken systems. Along the way, they trace how Jesus’ words to Paul echo the calling of Jeremiah, highlighting how divine commission shapes Paul’s understanding of his mission and identity.

  • Trusting God in the Hands of Empire | Disruptive Presence 131

    Trusting God in the Hands of Empire | Disruptive Presence 131
    Mar 18 2025

    Drop us a text message to say hi and let us know what you think of the show. (Include your email if you’d like us to reply)

    In which John and David explore Paul’s continued trials in Acts 25, reflecting on the relentless opposition he faces and the deep trust in God that sustains him. As Paul appeals to Caesar, they consider how his confidence is not in Roman justice, but in God’s providence—even within a broken system. Along the way, they reflect on the dangers of religious obsession, the dehumanising power of fixation, and the warning that good people can easily lose their way when driven by fear or control. Through it all, Paul’s unwavering integrity and trust in God shine as a model for us today.

Imagen de perfil para John Hailes

Love the way they bring the Bible alive!

Really enjoying this first series about the parables. David and John have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom. They dig deeper, explore, and just ask the right questions of the text. You will enjoy this fresh look at the stories we all think we know.
