  • English intermediate listening 4: Does God exist?

    30/03/2018 Duration: 14min

    In today's English listening exercise for intermediate students we look at a pretty big question: does God exist? Rokeby soon gets sidetracked into another, more specific question, however: did God write the bible? The aim of this question is to explore the nature of God and to use blunt logic to evaluate the viability of many of the assumptions that underpin the world's great religions. This listening exercise is perfect for intermediate students and you can download the audio, the text and see the translation at i-ling.org
