Welcome to Season 5 of The Bible Binge.  We asked the questions: What if there was a podcast that used pop culture literacy to enhance your biblical literacy? What if you could listen to a recap of the Bible like a recap of your favorite TV show? We’re currently in Season 5: Shady Ladies. In this episode, we discuss Hosea and Gomer. What happens when God tells you to marry a prostitute who falls in love with you but also decides to go back to prostitution?
