Ghetto Bible Tales
My name is Jerrica/PaperJay and I retell bible stories in a comical way. The goal is to make you laugh while teaching you about God and to make learning the bible less intimidating. We laugh but we learn too! The retellings are not meant to offend. I'm just putting a modern and humorous twist on an age-old book. All corresponding videos are currently streaming on YouTube too! (This includes videos made prior to creation of the podcast!)
