A message from me (Ed) the creator of Redeemed Podcast.
Video Transcript:
Hi, I’m Ed – creator, writer, and producer of Redeemed Podcast.
Redeemed produces dramatized stories inspired by biblical events. I’m creating this to give Christians a high-quality entertainment alternative with gospel roots and to connect my listeners with the story of Jesus in a unique and creative way.
Now besides the incredible actors I work with, it’s just me behind the scenes doing everything – writing, narrating, editing producing, etc. Because it’s just me, I’ve reached my limit and episode three is the final episode I can create alone.
I do plan to establish a team to help me produce episodes weekly, but for now, I want to create just one more episode with you. I’ve started a crowdfunding campaign to fund episode four.
If this campaign is successful, I’ll lift the curtain and invite you backstage with me. I’ll make you part of the entire journey. You’ll help me to decide what the episode will be about; you’ll witness my writing process, see how I work with my actors, experience the unexpected hurdles; but most importantly, you’ll help me oppose the dark entertainment options that are prevalent in the world today.
The world needs more light. Partner with me, and together let’s create a beautiful light in the darkness.

Frequently Asked Questions
I use creative license to create fictitious backstories to biblical events. This is Christian entertainment based on the gospels.
Listeners have told me that each episode actually encourages them to study the referenced biblical events in greater details in their bible. This brings me such joy because it’s my goal to keep listeners deeply connected to their bible.
Another important objective of this style of podcast is to connect non-christian listeners to the story of Jesus in a non-confrontational manner – people that would otherwise be very unreceptive to a gospel conversation.
No, I’m not. I believe in the absolute sufficiency of scripture, and I will never add to it. Redeemed Podcast is not the word of God – listening to it does not replace reading the bible.
I have also committed to NEVER add to the words of Christ. I will exercise creative license with other characters mentioned in the bible, but I will never make the character of Jesus say any more (or less) than what has been recorded in the gospels
Absolutely! I was saved in 2013 and my life has never been the same.
Some of my favourite theologians and bible teachers include:
- Jeff Durbin
- Charles Spurgeon.
- R.C. Sproul
- James White
- Douglas Wilson
I wrote the first episode in February 2020 while sick at home with what I thought was Covid (which turned out to be just the flu).
Besides the character lines performed by a cast of professional voice actors, I do everything myself.
I started Redeemed because I noticed how starved Christians are for high-quality entertainment that isn’t…cringy.
There are very few options available, and they are either extremely cheesy, have terrible theology, or both. I want to create something theologically rich at a world-class entertainment standard.
After all, it’s christians that should be setting the standard for beautiful productions because our work reflects the glory of Christ (Colossians 1:17)
I want to create something theologically rich at a world-class entertainment standard – to set a new standard for Christian theatre.
Adults are the primary target because Redeemed includes adult themes. I am purposely presenting an unfiltered depiction of life, with all of its blisters, tears and scars.
This is reality, and when we confront it, we embrace our desperate need for a saviour.
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
