Now It Makes Sense
Now It Makes Sense is a podcast for anyone who has ever found the Bible confusing, distant, or hard to trust, and wondered if it was even worth the effort.
Hosted by Dr. William Attaway, a teacher who believes the Bible makes more sense than most people have ever been told, each episode brings the ancient world to life — its culture, history, geography, languages, and archaeology — so that what the text meant then becomes clear, accessible, and relevant now.
No background required. No prior faith assumed. Just honest questions taken seriously, and a guide who has spent nearly 30 years helping people discover that context changes everything.
God can handle your questions. This is the place for them.
