About Open Seat

Open Seat is a place where we gather to discuss the glory of God revealed in the NewTestament by studying the original Greek in which it was written. We hope to bridge the gap of scholarship surrounding the study of Koine Greek, and as we host these conversations, we hope to demonstrate the beauty of the Bible's original languages. To all who are interested, take a seat with us and join the conversation today!

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.
