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?

  • Unconditioned Forgiveness | Seven 4

    Unconditioned Forgiveness | Seven 4
    22 Oct 2026

    In which John and David continue exploring Jesus’ first words from the cross in Luke 23 and his opening statement is not simply a declaration, but a prayer. Drawing on Isaiah, Galatians, and the Lord’s Prayer, we reflect on Jesus as the great high priest who intercedes for those responsible for his suffering.

  • Forgiveness Speaks First | Seven 3

    Forgiveness Speaks First | Seven 3
    20 Oct 2026

    In which John and David begin exploring Jesus’ first words from the cross in Luke 23. Against the brutality of crucifixion, Jesus speaks forgiveness before accusation, mockery, or repentance. Drawing on Augustine, Genesis, and the theology of grace, they consider how Christ’s words do more than describe forgiveness: they bring it into reality.

  • The Weight of the Words | Seven 2

    The Weight of the Words | Seven 2
    8 Oct 2026

    In which John and David continue their exploration of the seven last words of Jesus, tracing their chronology across the Gospels and considering the significance of three hours of darkness and silence. From the tenderness of Christ’s opening words to the cosmic weight of his final cries, they reflect on the danger of rushing towards resurrection without confronting the suffering and death of Jesus.
