Swipe Left or Right on Bible Characters — A Deeply Theological Dating App Style Review
Swiping Through Scripture — One Bible Character at a Time
When Bible Study Meets a Dating App
Welcome to the Bible Belt Bros Podcast, where theology meets swipe culture — kind of. In this episode, Andrew and Dusty channel their inner youth group energy and decide to play a little game: swiping left or right on Bible characters. Yes, it’s as ridiculous and wonderful as it sounds.
If you're new here, this isn't your grandma’s Bible study. This is a Christian Comedy Podcast made for the guys in the back row of church — the ones who definitely don’t have a WWJD bracelet but still know what Jesus would do... because they probably made a meme about it.
If you're looking for a Christian Podcast for Men that's not all protein powder, prayer circles, and yelling — you've found it.
Let the Swiping Begin
The episode kicks off with some classic confusion. Andrew opens the podcast solo, claiming to be alone — until Dusty shows up like a sitcom character entering stage left. Immediately, we’re off-script, talking about chairs and dogs, and whether Andrew needs either of them. Spoiler: he does not.
But eventually, they land the plane: today’s episode is about swiping left or right on Bible characters. Not romantically. This isn’t Christian Mingle. It’s more like: “Would we be friends with this guy?”
Defining the Game
The rules are simple:
-
Swipe right = You’d let them in your life. Friends. Bros. Small group material.
-
Swipe left = Hard pass. Let them go be someone else’s burden.
As Dusty clarifies: “Not to sleep with them… we’re both married.”
This is not about biblical compatibility. It’s about vibes. And maybe a little theology. But mostly vibes.
Andrew, the self-proclaimed introvert, threatens to swipe left on everyone and delete the app entirely. Relatable.
First Up: Adam
Adam. The OG human. Made from dust. Given the Garden of Eden and told not to eat one fruit — and, well, here we are.
His resume:
-
Made in God’s image.
-
Given dominion over the Earth.
-
Took a nap and woke up with a wife.
-
Walked closely with God.
Sounds like a solid dude… except for the whole "plunge humanity into sin" thing. But hey, nobody’s perfect.
Andrew reads the description like a dating profile: “Innocent. Works with his hands. Loves animals. Bit of a fruit issue.”
Dusty, channeling every youth pastor ever, considers it: "If you’re looking for a godly man to be your best friend..."
So... swipe right? Swipe left? They never fully commit. Which, honestly, is very on brand for this show.
The Vibe of the Episode
What makes this episode peak Christian Comedy Podcast isn’t the theological depth — though Adam’s backstory does get some airtime — it’s the tone.
Dusty’s goofy. Andrew’s dry. Together, they somehow make ancient Bible figures feel like candidates on a reality show.
And they do it without ever actually getting to another character. That’s right. One episode. One guy. Adam. And still 30 minutes of content.
This is a Christian Podcast for Men who can’t commit to a Bible reading plan but can commit to laughing about it. And honestly? That’s a ministry.
Swipe Carefully
While the episode starts with the promise of a whole list of Bible characters, it very quickly becomes a character study of Adam, some dog commentary, and a lot of side trails. And that’s what makes this podcast work.
It’s not polished. It’s not prepped. It’s two dudes riffing about scripture like they’re on a coffee break at a men’s retreat.
If you’re the type of guy who’s tried to lead a Bible study with memes, or if your theology degree came from YouTube comments — the Bible Belt Bros are your people.
This episode isn’t deep. But it’s honest. It’s funny. And it’s exactly what the Christian Comedy Podcast world needed — a swipe mechanic for Bible characters.
So if you’re tired of serious sermons and just want a laugh, maybe even at the expense of Adam — grab your metaphorical phone and swipe right on this show.
