Episodes
In this special episode, Preacher reads the Christmas story directly from the Bible—from prophecy to the manger and the visit of the wise men.
Scripture passages:
Micah 5:2 • Isaiah 7:14
Matthew 1:18–25
Luke 2:1–7 • Luke 2:8–14 • Luke 2:15–20
Matthew 2:1–12
It’s too cold for our regular campfire, so Preacher’s invited the whole buckaroo gang inside to sip cocoa and get cozy by the fireplace.
In this episode, Preacher shares a Christmas from long ago—one where all he got was a bag of rocks… or so he thought. This is the final chapter in Preacher's Christmas story, but be sure to come back for a special reading of the Christmas story from Preacher himself.

Well howdy, buckaroos! Grab yourselves a s'more, get cozy in your blankets, cuz I've got a tasty tale for y'all tonight. If you remember, God helped our friends, the Israelites, escape the Egyptian cowboys chasin' after them. They made it out of the Red Sea and set up camp in the desert. And after their long journey, they started getting hungry.
Episode Title: The Good, the Bad, and the Red Sea (with Captain C)
Howdy, Buckaroos! Grab a seat by the fire, because tonight, we're diving into one of the biggest, most exciting rescues in history!
This week, Preacher welcomes a very special guest: his old friend, the seasoned sailor, Captain Charles "C" Shanty! After a fun, nautical introduction, they drop anchor in the dramatic tale of the Exodus.
⚓ Wha...
Well howdy, buckaroos! Welcome back, pull up a stump, and grab a s'more. I hope you're all warmed up and ready for a tale that'll make your spurs jingle. Last time, we talked about Moses and that mysterious blazin' bush. Tonight, we're ridin' right into the heart of the showdown, when Moses and his brother Aaron confronted the toughest rancher in all of Egypt, old Pharaoh himself!
Now one day, Moses was out watchin’ his sheep near a mighty big mountain, just mindin’ his business, hummin’ a tune or countin’ clouds, when he saw somethin’ stranger than a cowboy trying to milk a pig. Something that didn't quite add up.
He saw a bush — on fire — blazin' like this here campfire. But the leaves on this bush weren't burnin' up and the wood didn't look like these here logs in ou...
But this new sheriff, the new Pharaoh that is, well he came along and didn’t remember Joseph — the one who’d saved Egypt from starvation years back. Nope, this Pharaoh got nervous seein’ how mighty the Israelites were gettin'. So he made 'em slaves. Worked 'em like worn-out plow mules. But still they grew. Why? 'Cause God was with ‘em.
Last time, we heard how Joey got himself into a mighty powerful spot down in Egypt. And a heap of years went by since the king had that dream about the cows and remember Joey told him they needed to start setting food aside. Our story picks up when people started runnin' out of food.
Tonight, we're gonna saddle up and ride back to the story of our friend, Joseph. Now, last time, we left poor Joey in a mighty tough spot, didn't we? Can anyone remember what happened to him, even though he didn't do a lick of wrong?
Well howdy there, lil’ buckaroos! Pull up your blankets, grab a marshmallow or two, and gather 'round the fire. Tonight I got a story that’s chilled with truth and topped with faith. But first, I got a question...
Israel had quite a few buckaroos of his own. 12 to be exact, but they didn't all get along. See one of the younger brothers, the one named Joseph, he got along really well with his Pa, but that made the other brothers mighty jealous. And when his pa gave Joseph a special gift, a coat that was stitched up like a prairie sunset—reds, blues, golds... well you can be sure those brothers of his weren't rejoicing ...
So you see, little buckaroos, Easter is about more than just bunnies and eggs. It's about the most amazing thing that ever happened. Jesus, God's own Son, He died for us, but death couldn't hold Him down! He rose again, conquerin' the darkest night and bringin' the light of hope and new life for everyone. That's the real story of Easter, a story of love and victory that shines brighter th...
And that, my young'uns, is the story of Good Friday. It's a story of sacrifice and love, of pain and hope. It reminds us that even when things seem their darkest, the Big Bossman's always got a plan. He's always there to mend our broken fences, to heal our wounds, and to lead us back to the home on the range.
Howdy buckaroos! Pull up them blankets and get real close. Tonight, I want to tell ya a story about my best friend. Now, this ain't some high noon showdown or cowboys fighting over birthright, but it’s about somethin’ far more important. And this story begins on a dusty trail.
Welcome back, buckaroos! Gather 'round the fire. Preacher's got a good one for you tonight, a tale of two brothers. It's the story of Jacob, a fella who was runnin' from his past and finally ready to face the consequences of his actions.
Welcome back buckaroos! It's so good to be back round the campfire with y'all! I hope you're excited for tonight's story, it's a real dream come true! So grab your cocoa and s’mores, I’m gonna tell you about our cowboy, Jacob, that was on the run from his brother.
Howdy, buckaroos! Gather 'round, pull them blankets tight. It's dark, real dark, and I gotta be sure it's really you sittin' there, 'cause this here tale's got more cases of mistaken identity than a blindfolded bronco in a rodeo. It's a story 'bout two brothers, a stolen birthright, and a whole heap of family drama. Now, let me see your faces in that firelight, just to be sure i...
Howdy, buckaroos! Gather 'round, snuggle up in your blankets, grab some cocoa, cuz I’ve good one for you tonight! Remember our cowboy, Abraham and his wife Sarah? Last campfire, we talked about the 3 cowboys that visited them and told Sarah she’d be havin’ a baby. Well that lil buckaroo grew up into a fine young man and it was about time for him to get married and start his own family.
Howdy, buckaroos! Welcome back to another night 'round the campfire. Last time, we talked about Abram and Lot, and how Abram chose peace over a bigger piece of the pie, or in his case, a bigger piece of land. Now, before we dive into tonight's tale, I've got a surprise for y'all, and a special guest!
