About Modern Parables

Preaching sermons can be dull if it is not infused with illustrations. The Modern Parables Podcast seeks to bridge random cultural topics with spiritual insights. Through humor, deep discussions, and the depth of God's Word, this podcast will give listeners sermon illustrations created on the spot from random topics. Each week, Pastors Isaac Steiner, Levi Tidwell, Caleb Stout and Haley Fouts bring on a guest pastor and dive right in to a section of God's Word then to the random topic generator. Enhance your sermons, improve your preaching, or just enjoy a good laugh with Modern Parables.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
