3 Actually Good Christian Storytelling Podcasts

by Rob Vischer

March 9, 2021

Most Christian podcasts do 2 things: sermons and interviews. Finding a good Christian storytelling podcast, or really any Christian storytelling podcast, is like finding a cat person at a dog park. Odds are… it won’t happen.

I love storytelling podcasts like NPR’s This American Life, Pushkin’s Revisionist History, and Gimlet’s Heavyweight. The short audio stories of real people fascinate me, but until 1 year ago, I only listened to podcasts that at best ignored Christianity all together or at worst made fun of Christianity. But I still listened because the storytelling, the music, and the commentary blended to make entertaining and beautiful stories from people in all walks of life.

Then, 1 year ago, I discovered Love Thy Neighborhood. After being inspired by Love Thy Neighborhood, I decided to make Audible God. Because of my work on that, I discovered Unshackled again for the first time. I highly recommend all of these podcasts. Each one tells intriguing stories of normal people in a style that’s genuinely entertaining and thought provoking… and not every story ends in an altar call. Listen now.

Love Thy Neighborhood

The storytelling is beautiful. The empathy is apparent. The theology is sound. Grace & truth, justice & mercy, righteousness & humility all co-exist together in an intimate space with a collage of human suffering and hope in Jesus. In a world of bumperstickers and mean tweets, Love Thy Neighborhood gives a refuge to Christians who seek truthful nuance.

Audible God

The Audible God podcast mashes up a hip hop soundtrack and humor with intriguing stories of ordinary people who claim they’ve heard from God. From an artist who sensed God telling him to paint a portrait for a guy in a coma to a former drunk who put diapers on his head, each story will fascinate you. And you’ll be pumped to share each one with your friends.

Unshackled

This old-fashioned radio drama tells compelling real-life stories of actual people who found hope in Jesus in the midst of addiction, abuse, and desperate hopelessness. The vintage organ soundtrack, seamless narration, and stylized voice acting capture humanizing stories of brokenness and redemption.

All Things Are Possible Pt. 1

Posted by Dwayne and Leia Norman on July 8, 2021 at 3:33pm in Podcast

All Things Are Possible Pt. 1 will inspire your faith in God, and in His grace. All things are possible to him who believes, to the Christian who operates in faith. It is so important to have a good understanding of grace and faith, because they work together so that we can experience God's supernatural rest and peace. The reason we can have faith in God and enjoy His blessings is because of His grace. Grace tells us that everything is finished in Christ, and faith appropriates it. Faith always responds to what God has already done for us! If you would like to get our books, "Grace, Faith and Rest", "Just Believe" and "How To Respond To A Bad Report" just go to Amazon, thanks.

2. Out of the Dark with Mandisa & Laura William‪s

Out of the Dark is a podcast about mental health in the body of Christ. The hosts explain that as followers of Jesus, people are sometimes led to believe that if we struggle with anxiety, depression, addiction, identity, or the many other areas of our mental health that we are less of a Christian or are just not praying enough.

As members of the body of Christ, Mandisa and Laura tackle the idea that, while Jesus IS enough, a relationship with a counselor can help heal wounds that will enhance your relationship with Jesus. In their show, they cover specific topics related to mental health and offer resources to listeners to enhance your journey of personal growth.
