#59 Is God Different in the Old Testament? With Jean E. Jones

Welcome back to the first episode of the New Year! I\'m so excited to bring you lots of great episodes with many smart and interesting guests in 2020. The first of which is Bible teacher and apologist Jean E. Jones who joins me on today\'s podcast to talk about why God might seem different in the Old Testament. As many of us are beginning our Bible reading plans for the year, Jean E. gives us some great advice and talks about specific verses that leave many people scratching their heads and thinking, \"God is mean!\"
