Another referenced episode about Elijah's non-death: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2tJjKIbcnyLJSy5FaYQrwl?si=okJ-cTjDRQOff928w-tbpA Justin Gerhardt is a chronically curious storyteller. He is the creator of the podcast Holy Ghost Stories—an episodic, immersive telling of the stories of the Old Testament with a focus on character and craft. He also serves as the founder and president of Hazefire Studios, a nonprofit devoted to expanding the intersection of story and worship. With a degree in philosophy and Biblical studies, Justin worked for 20 years as a minister and preacher before feeling called to explore new ways to share Scripture with an increasingly irreligious world. To cut costs as he began Holy Ghost Stories in 2021, Justin and his family embarked on a 2-year-long season of global nomadism that took them to England, Croatia, Ireland, Greece, Egypt, and South Africa. Today, Justin and his wife, author JL Gerhardt, work as partners at Hazefire Studios on various projects, including live storytelling events, training for creatives, and The Storied Family—a parenting workshop designed to help families establish their identity in the context of God’s story. Every other week, he publishes “The Latest,” a newsletter devoted to his newest projects and discoveries. This spring, Justin and acclaimed cellist Kendall Ramseur are taking Holy Ghost Stories on tour, bringing a multi-dimensional experience with the story of The Exodus to audiences in six U.S. cities.
