Last season I (Pastor Vinnie) focused on mostly stand-alone topics. I had occasional guests yet, I was the main presenter. This season we are changing things up. Our focus for this full season is the historical Jesus; including his culture, people, political situation, and geographical footprint. I am joined by Jonathan Martin who is my new co-host for the season! It is all about seeking Jesus on deeper theological levels.  Social Media Connections: Find us @  Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Blogs | TikTok Check out my blogs, articles, and spiritual growth material @ www.SimplyVinnie.com  All background music is used with permission from the following sources:  purple-planet.com  soundstripe.com Additional featuring music used by permission of Solidrocksda.com and Pastor Vinnie.  (c) 2020 – 2025
