I am a twelve year old girl from Northern MI. I LOVE THIS PODCAST SO MUCH!!!!!!! EZ i love the singing and the jokes, Ray thank you for being an amazing influence in my life, Mark I love that I can learn something new very time you make a comment, and Oscar thank you for being an amazing spiritual influence. I started listening to your podcast when my mom would play it in the kitchen and after a while it became my go to for listening to the gospel and good ways to learn more about the Bible. Thank you guys so much for the influence you guys have been in my spiritual life.

Thank you all for sharing your wisdom and experiences! I really enjoy listening to you all! God Bless you all!!

I started listening to this podcast a few years ago and have finally finished every episode!! I came from a very rough upbringing with a very legalistic church and abuse in the home. That drove me to drugs and alcohol. I was a nut to say the least. After years of that life and almost completely destroying my life I asked God to pull me out and he did through multiple hardships and circumstances. I finally repented and surrendered to Him and started my real Christian journey. You guys have played a major major role in helping me find real truth and explaining tough issues. This podcast has been a major motivator in getting me into evangelism and seeking to bring the truth to others! I have started a YouTube telling people’s stories of transformation and use that as a tool for street evangelism. I also have and will use more of your resources. I read the Evidence bible almost daily. Thank you all so much! God bless and keep up the great work.

As a busy wife, mother of 3, homeschooler it can be hard to find time to get together with friends, laugh and share things going on in our lives, HOWEVER, listening to these podcasts weekly (daily if you listen back to earlier recordings), it has been exactly what my weary heart needed; laughter , the gospel of Jesus Christ , encouragement, and real life application. After only a few episodes you’ll begin to realize you have a new group of friends that host a podcast! There is the totally hip friend (Oscar), the chicken crazy friend (Ray), the sound of reason friend (Mark), and of course the ridiculously hilarious with bits of wisdom friend (EZ) - love you brothers, keep up your Kingdom work!

I have been listening for a couple of months now, I love the fellowship, Ray’s heart for the Gospel and deep conviction for seeing sinners saved. I steal Mark’s quotes daily, rely on the wisdom of Oscar, and love the goofiness EZ brings. I was in conviction about my calling in life and this podcast helped show me the courage I needed to follow that calling and better live out obedience. “Obedience is born in Love” -Clint Pressley by way of Mark Spence

♥️👏🏽♥️

Mark Spence’s continued positive citations of Sam Storms is an eyesore on this show. Sam Storms defends some of the biggest antichrists out there. Please be careful on who you positively cite! Spence has no discernment! Positively citing other heretics like Christine Caine, Tim Keller and Mother Teresa?! Come on man!

I am a seventeen year old girl from Virginia and have been watching yall's YouTude channel for 3 years. My family and I went to a charismatic church, which my grandfather pastored, until I was ten. We then moved to a doctrinally sound baptist church, where I first learned about repentance and put my faith in Christ. After attending this church for five years, my parents decided to move back to the charismatic church. I was heartbroken by their decision, knowing how deceptive the charismatic movement is. I still go to the youth group at our Baptist church but have not been able to go on Sunday mornings for the past two years. On top of this, I have family members who profess to be Christians but show no fruit of true repentance. Church has been hard for me for the past couple of years, but your podcast has brought me so much encouragement and strength. Ray, I just read your book "Any One But Me" and "How To Battle Depression and Suicidal Thoughts" and am currently reading "Faith Is For Weak People". These books, your podcasts, and your YouTube channel have equipped me to evangelize my family and any unbelievers I may meet. I plan on going to The Master's University in a few years and would love to meet you guys while I'm in California! Thank you guys so much for all you do! I am praying for you daily. P.S. E.Z., keep singing! And Mark and Oscar, it’s pronounced AUGUST-een 😉 Your sister in Christ, Cameron

Hello Friiiieeeeends This podcast is 100% the best podcast I’ve ever heard. So encouraging every time I turn it it on. I’m always telling my friends and family, “Well I heard this from the Living Waters podcast…” Now I just tell them I got this from “The Podcast” because y’all are literally the only podcast I listen to now. E.Z. Is awesome. E.Z. Make sure you read this one E.Z. lol 😉

This podcast is full is wisdom, laughter and the living Word! Thank you SO much for your time and efforts. If I could pick one podcast to listen to my whole life it would be this one.

Thank you for your ministry and your podcast. I always find myself being convicted of something each time I listen! But you all approach the topics with so much humility, so it never feels condescending. My husband and I have been continually inspired to share the gospel more boldly with our neighbors and friends because of your videos and this podcast. And we have seen fruit! Praise the Lord for using your ministry to inspire so many followers of Christ to live faithfully and proclaim the gospel! And thank you for leading by example, but with wisdom and humility!

I LOVE the podcasts, but not crazy about these shorter “mini”episodes. I know they’re designed to get us to listen early to the entire longer version on your new network..but it makes me not listen until later in the week when the longer podcast comes out. I’ve listened to your podcasts for about a year now and also follow you on YouTube. Wish there was a way to try the network out for free first, as it seems so many are asking for paid subscriptions these days. We have to be prayerfully selective on those we decide to commit to, as we can’t commit to them all sadly.

My husband and I love this podcast! We have been listening for a few years now and never miss an episode. Highly recommend!!

These guys are con artists.

Living Waters/WOTM has been such a huge part of my story. God has used you guys to help me in so many ways! I love the podcast and need to get more connected.

I started listening to this podcast the beginning of 2024. Since then, I’ve listened to every episode some more than once this is my first comment, through the teaching and conversation of this podcast I have learned more than I ever thought I could about God and the Bible. You guys have helped me to understand And move forward in my calling of evangelism. God bless!

Thank you for being so honest in your topics that you talk about. I heard about you from my husband and daughter, since then I have found so much joy and help for tough questions! All of your answers are so insightful and more importantly you all ALWAYS point back to Jesus and that’s important. I love the jokes and all the laughter you all share it has given me and my family the ability to know that joking around is important. Thank you guys again! You all are amazing!

The guy who wrote Torahism blatantly lied on the podcast when it came to the sabbath day. It’s very clear that God hollowed out the last day of the week and made it holy. It’s scripture! Not to mention gentiles are grafted into the covenant now…do you guys even read the Bible??? Like I was genuinely trying to listen to test the scriptures and couldn’t even make it to the end. I’m not even a theologian!! This is why the church is now so lost because guys like these are pretending to be shepherds. And I thought Ray comfort was genuine!? Do you approve this message?

These guys are the craziest, zaniest, funny, insightful, biblically sound, challengingly evangelical, pushing us to share our faith in an awesome way. Y’all make me laugh out loud, sometimes weep, and sometimes receive inspired learning to apply to my daily life.

I am fifteen, and for as long as I can remember, my family has watched Living Waters. While I was impressed at your evangelism, I had never felt the need to do it myself. Why should I, when people like you already are? Well, about a year ago I started listening to the podcast and wow!! I’ve bounced around from listening to in order to picking and choosing back to listening in order. It has honestly been one of the biggest areas of my growth as a Christian. Y’all somehow balance humor, fellowship, and theological discussions perfectly and I can’t get enough!! EZ, you have inspired me to work on memorizing the epistles. Yes, all of them. That being said, maaayyybe y’all could do an episode on memorization?? I also love all of the voices you do, though your Ray impersonation, while funny, may not be 100% accurate. Ray, your love for the lost and passion for evangelism have lit a fire under me, and I find myself praying that God would give me opportunities to do what you have so faithfully done. Oscar, your empathy for the lost while not condoning them at all (along with your love for Narnia) is wonderful. I have had a new desire to read many more Christian nonfiction books and I’m very grateful. Mark, your wisdom and ability to keep discussions on track is admirable, and I thank you for it. It has helped me to engage my mind more when considering things. In truth, I believe that y’all’s podcast has helped me incredibly. You have taught me to think critically when it comes to the many people who claim Christianity and to keep Christ and the Bible the first, foremost, and only object of truth for my life. I am incredibly, incredibly grateful. I’ll be praying!! P.S. Keep singing EZ 👏🏼😁

I love this podcast but i absolutely hate the new format. We want more podcasts, like daily would be awesome, but instead you cut it down to one a week? Cmon guys!

I listen to all your podcasts and looked forward to listening to your podcast every week and now you are making me pay for your subscription I am deeply upset and not interested in paying now I guess I will not be listening to you anymore I am very disappointed I hope you guys come back sincerely your podcast really made a difference good bye

The Living Waters Ministry and team is second to none. Not only are they scripturally sound, they incorporate the perfect level of humor in order to appeal to most anyone. This ministry has been used to help me along my Christian walk in more ways than I can list. Truly grateful for this resource, and I pray it blesses every life of those who listen to it. (Get the Evidence Study Bible)…

Grandma!! What big guns you have!!

This podcast has been such a blessing!!!! There’s never been an episode that after finishing I haven’t been greatly encouraged and challenged in my walk with the LORD!! Thank all of you so much for all the hard work you have put into this podcast and all the other many ways you all have been serving the body of CHRIST!! 1 Corinthians 15:58 LSB Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

This podcast gives much practical advice on how to live for God and to be a witness for the Savior. I also appreciate the encouragement to be faithful in difficult circumstances.

I am an agnostic with a wonderful relationship with my fiancée, a devout Christian. Her brother recently cornered her and implored her to call off our marriage and and leave me so as to save her soul from eternal damnation. He cited an episode of this podcast and begged her to listen to it. She didn't, but I did. This podcast (ep 162) implies that, upon marriage, I will be a drunken glutton who abuses her and cheats without apology. It compares me and my depravity to Jeffrey Dahmer. It says that because I do not fear God, I have no morality and there is no recourse when I do horrible things. It reinforces and encourages an "us vs them" mentality where Christians must be in direct opposition to the rest of the world. This is a sad, narrow, and dangerous world view. I hope listeners of this podcast will broaden their horizons and seek other perspectives. Respectfully, An agnostic who won't beat his wife.

I appreciate all the wisdom and counsel y’all give in this podcast, I wanted to suggest an idea for topic on the living waters podcast. Your thoughts on “Backsliding Christian”. Please see this!! Thank you

I really look forward to listening to the conversations. These men have in the interplay between them. That makes me think it makes me laugh. I wonder if the followers of Lord Jesus when he was here on earth had as much fun as they do.

Been listening to this podcast ever since my church (Mission Bible Church in Costa Mesa) had an evangelism conference where I first heard about Living Waters. Quick background, I've grown up in the church for as long as I can remember, and my husband grew up Catholic. Going into marriage we were both professing Christians but came to realize that we were both false converts, attending seeker sensitive churches our whole lives and unknowingly believing in a transactional, works based faith, feeling entitled for forgiveness and salvation because of our attempt at our "best Christian life". By God's amazing grace, through finally studying what God's word actually had to say, we saw that none are righteous and we are desperately wicked sinners in need of a holy and perfect Savior who is Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit changed both my husband and my hearts (about 6 months apart from each others conversions), we grieved over our sins, and God gave us a new heart of repentance and all we desire now is to serve and honor God. We cannot even express how much your ministry has blessed us - majority of our family and friends desperately need to hear the gospel but we often feel we lack the tools to know how to share. This podcast has helped us so much and the living waters tv app is our new favorite app. Instead of watching TV when we wind down at night we watch an episode on the app instead 😂it really feels like you guys are our friends even though you don't know us yet, your voices and laughter often fill our home & I'm pretty sure our one year old daughter is already familiar with all your voices at this point LOL Thank you for all you do, God is using you all mightily for the kingdom!

This the best podcast ever!! It is Gospel centered, informative, and hilarious! The hosts love for Jesus Christ is evident in every podcast, and their mission to give people the tools they need to do the work of evangelism are amazing. This podcast has given me a greater desire to share the Gospel with others, and it (along with their YouTube channel) has helped me learn how do it. This year, I became a volunteer with Child Evangelism Fellowship. I now help at their outreaches and in their Good News Club ministry. I have used what I learned on this podcast to help me spread the Good News of Jesus Christ! Thank you, Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar for this podcast! God bless you all!!

EZ, Ray, Mark, and Oscar, I found out about the podcast after hearing EZ and Mark speak at the 2023 AiG conference “Contending for a Biblical Worldview,” which I attended with my family and church friends. I have been listening for a year now. I am a freshman in college and I’m known as the living waters podcast fan in my family and my friend group! Y’all always make me laugh with your interactions and humor. The more I listen, the more I can relate to EZ in that our friends don’t always appreciate true brilliance. LOL. The podcast has been such a blessing to me. Your thoughts, stories, and testimonies have impacted all facets of my faith. Y’all have encouraged me to be bold for Christ and exhorted me for how to interact with both believers and unbelievers. I found out today while doing homework that I was one of the October 3rd giveaway winners! I started freaking out and telling my family and friends. Thank you so much!!! I’m praying that the Lord will use these resources to help grow me in Him. Keep standing on God’s Word! In Christ, Josephine F. P.S. Joke Alert: How did Moses feel when he was in that basket as a baby? He was in Da-Nile (in denial in the Nile River).

This has been a blessing to my faith and have grown my desire and boldness with sharing the gospel. You guys are a wonderful light to this dark world. Between the goofy antics throughout the discussion to the deep theological truths that are talked about. Oscar, I am thankful there is at least one sane person there that has a love of coffee as much as I do. lol. Thank you for the wisdom that you 4 godly men have been so kind enough to share with us all. Will continue to pray for your ministry. God bless!

Thank you for your podcast and the gospel tracts. My family has been able to hand out these gospel tracts wherever we go. My family travelled to Australia, and as we built a relationship with our flight attendant, we were able to gift her a Gospel of John. Pauline, our flight attendant was very receptive to the gift and we pray that this step of faith will help further the gospel. One more way that we have been able to share the gospel is as we drive by buses. 🤭 My dad would pull up our van right next to a bus, and we would hand some little Chupa Chups (suckers) to the bus driver, and then we followed it with a Gospel of John. These little gestures may seem small, but I hope and pray that they will amount to something greater, for the good of the kingdom. Thank you again for the wisdom that you share in this podcast, and the 30 minute intros of pure humor. And lastly, a joke. What is a Boa Constrictors favorite game? Swallow the leader!

Ray is so amazing. How God has been using him to reach the lost.

Living Waters has greatly added to my faith.

This is by FAR the best podcast in the world. Ray Mark Oscar and EZ combine laughter and truth into this wonderful and biblically sound podcast. EZ, you are so funny! 😆 (KEEP ON SINGING MORE OFTEN!) Ray, your passion of reaching the lost with the gospel is inspirational, and your love for chickens is hilarious 🐓 Mark, I like how you explain and clarify, and Oscar, your points and insights are very helpful. Keep on the good work, YALL! (greetings from Texas!) 🤍

The best Christian podcast out there.

I mean this in a positive way of course. Though these guys may seem somewhat odd, peculiar, and bizarre (EZ especially), you’ll grow to love them, laughing with (and sometimes at) them and absorbing the wonderful Gospel centered truths they share. Thank you guys for all that you do!! You’ve greatly encouraged my walk with Christ and I pray that God will continue to work in mighty ways through your ministry!

Hello Living Waters, I just wanted to make this review because I have been so blessed by your podcast. Recently I was involved in a very horrible car crash in which I lost control of my arms and legs and I have become a quadriplegic. I have never been in such despair as I sit in my lonely hospital bed longing for the day I can move again. That was until my mom discovered this podcast and decided to play an episode to me. I just wanted to thank you EZ because your singing made me get out of bed and turn the podcast off. God bless you guys.

Quite a few times I have felt the desire to rate and review a podcast that I have especially enjoyed, and I am a little ashamed to say that I never have made it past the inclination. I stumbled upon y’all’s show a few months ago and after the 4th or 5th episode I was hooked and started feeling that inclination again. I am now a little over 70 episodes in and I am convicted to such a degree that it feels like it would negligent to not do so. WHO you guys are, individually, is such a blessing, and I have been inspired by thoughts and stories from each of you; but WHAT you are is invaluable and for me I would say had become almost a necessity. I have had 2 jobs in the last 15 years and both of them have components where I do somewhat medial tasks for hours of the day, so needless to say, podcasts have become a very valuable thing for me. There is something special and rare about the relationship you all have together that seems to bring a little light to those darker areas. Your senses of humor, and banter, how y’all seem naturally adept at navigating the shallower and the deepest spiritual conversations, the way that you all seem down to earth (for lack of a better phrase) while obviously having your mind set on the kingdom, the way you talk about the most serious things while never taking yourselves too seriously (maybe EZ slightly less than the others). And so much more. I looked for a Christian podcast for quite a while and couldn’t get more than a few episodes in without finding a reason not to continue, and I am so grateful God eventually led me to you guys.

Hey I’m Eva from Texas. I’m been listening to your podcast since y’all dropped the first episode. There’s always something to laugh at, something to be convicted of and always something I can learn from. I love the fellowship/friendship you guys have. I was very excited for EZs book and I ordered it right when it can out. I asked my brother if it was wired that I was reading a book for men since I’m a woman and he said yes lol and there’s been some things in there that aren’t really relatable to me but I’ve still learned so much from it and have really been convicted of how I viewed sexual sins. I would highly recommend the book to anyone that has ever struggled with any sexual sins in the past. Thank you guys for what you do!

You are not funny. Get to your topics. I cannot endure your time wasting at beginning of every episode corny jokes forced humor. Yuck.

I love this podcast, been listening since the first episode. Ray, EZ , Oscar and Mark are so faithful To Gods Word. I Enjoy so much every episode. Thanks Guys and keep up the good work.

I love this podcast! It’s hilarious, convicting, encouraging and speaks so much of His Truth and encouragement into my life. Ray is such an incredible example of the courage and boldness we all should have for Jesus. So thankful God is using y’all in such an amazing way in so many lives!!

I absolutely love this podcast. Up until a month ago, I was a false convert. I lived in sin, pornography addiction, lying to my wife about it…. But this podcast showed me the truth about my sin. I always knew it was wrong and I told myself I was still be sanctified but I wasn’t really putting any effort toward living righteously. This podcast has seriously helped open my eyes and set me on a path to chasing after the Lord. I had discovered Ray’s videos about 2 years ago and I devoured them like crazy when I first proclaimed to be a Christian, along with Mike Winger and others. But I never had the heart change. I relate mostly to Oscar, because of his love for books, and I relate to EZ’s sense of humor. Mark has a lot of wisdom that has helped me on my journey and Ray’s passion inspires me. Thank you guys for all that you do.

I’ve been listening for a over 2 years now and love this podcast. All 4 men take their walks with the Lord seriously, with thanksgiving and joy. This is displayed through the friendship, as well as their convictions on each topic. I recommend it every time I’m around someone. My dad and I like to start our texting or in person conversations with “alright freeeeeends”

I now listen almost everyday to this podcast while walking my dog or doing chores. I enjoy the humor and light-hearted yet very insightful and above all biblical conversations. Some episodes are so good that I was compelled to share them with friends. :) that said, I’m still on the fence about getting the mug. :D

I have been listening to this podcast for around a year now and it is easily my favorite, it really helps me get out of the ruts I constantly fall into. You all have really helped me grow in my spiritual life, and I am so thankful for the laughs and wisdom, thank the Lord for people as dedicated and wise as you all, you guys have such a gift, and you are helping so many people around you, Thanks!

Hi friends! 😂 Thank you guys so much for this podcast! I have learned so much about The Lord, The Bible, how to walk out my Christian faith etc… You have helped me develop a biblical worldview. I recommend this podcast to everyone and those who’ve listened feel the same way - we are being equipped!! I am really grateful for the topics that are not taught very often these days like repentance, the holiness of God, sin etc… But I am particularly grateful for episodes on feminism, a biblical view of women’s roles, and the one on female pastors.. listened several times in tears to each one. You see I grew up in a culture that celebrates feminism. Praise GOD I was born again in my 30’s. However, I was in an egalitarian-minded church for a long time after being saved and ended up becoming a female co-pastor. Praise God He has done a work in my life the last couple of years!! I have repented of being a female pastor. I now embrace and delight in believing the Bible from cover to cover and am endeavoring to study deeply and obey it. It is such a DELIGHT! And you guys have been so instrumental in this massive shift in my Christian faith. Thank you! You guys often ask for ideas about podcast topics… I’d be so curious to learn more about when and how feminism/egalitarianism entered the church. It seems to me that this movement has been destructive to Christians, churches, marriages etc… Thanks again guys. I’m praying for you all! Please keep speaking the truth especially on the tough stuff - The Truth you share equips us in a culture dominated by lies and churches that have weak and false teachings. Also thank you for sharing the 9Marks website… we found a greta church through that! Blessings! -Your sister in Christ Laurie who likes both black coffee and coffee with creamer… I know weird huh?😁
