For angels, demons, and spirit beings, try the Naked Bible
One recommender calls Bible scholar Michael Heiser the go-to person for the spiritual realm.
If you want to know what the Bible says about angels, demons, and other spirit beings, the podcast to try is the Naked Bible. The tip comes from a Bible teacher sharing six favorite Bible podcasts, who calls its host, Bible scholar Michael Heiser, the go-to person for the spiritual realm.
Heiser died in 2023, and the show remains available as an archive. In the same roundup, the Bible Project, a free video and podcast resource, is described as organized around themes, while another series moves through biblical books one chapter at a time with deep historical context. The Naked Bible is the one the speaker tied most closely to the supernatural.
Its episodes take up angels, demons, and spirit beings in the biblical text, for listeners who want to study that strand in depth.
Questions people ask
Who was Michael Heiser?
Heiser was an Old Testament scholar with a doctorate in Hebrew Bible and Semitic languages. He worked for many years with the Bible software company Logos, wrote books including The Unseen Realm, and taught extensively on the supernatural in the Bible before his death in 2023.
What does the Naked Bible cover besides angels and demons?
The title refers to reading the Bible without filtering out the strange parts. In practice, that meant episodes on angels and demons, the divine council, giants and other spirit beings, as well as verse-by-verse teaching through biblical books.
Where can I listen to it?
The full archive is still widely available through major podcast apps and the Naked Bible website. New listeners usually start with episodes on topics that interest them, since much of the teaching stands alone rather than requiring strict order.
