The Scottish Tempest: The Life of John Knox, ep. 3
Hey everybody. It's been a while since the last episode of The Scottish Tempest because I really dove deep on this one, as you may be able to tell by the run time. There's a lot of ground covered in this one and a lot of details that I just couldn't overlook.
I know it's a long one, but... that's kind of the point of this podcast. I'm trying to leave very few stones un-turned here and I hope that shows in the finished product. Don't be afraid to reach out to us on Twitter, (or X, or whatever we're calling it these days) or Facebook to let us know what you think about the series so far.
Thanks for listening!
