The Jew & The Gentile Podcast

Listen weekly to Chris Katulka (the Gentile dude) and Steve Herzig (the Jewish sage) as they unpack the Scriptures, comment on current events related to Israel and the Jewish people, tell stories about ministry, and explain some fun Jewish culture and customs. You’ll even learn some Yiddish words along the way! Oy!

The Gesher Podcast with Ty Perry

The Gesher Podcast is the place where the Evangelical and Jewish communities come together for intelligent conversation about the things that matter; where we discuss history, theology, culture, and a shared Judeo-Christian heritage.
