According to Lee, Godcasts - "religious and spiritually themed podcasts" - have become "the most popular use of the new online technology since it debuted less than a year ago". They "range from a daily dose of Scripture to a weekly dose of the Bible translated into Klingon", continued Lee, who explained that "the vast majority are Christian-based, but they also include New Age, Jewish and Buddhist podcasts."
Many of these are collected at Godcast.org, said the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The site was started by Craig Patchett, whose eight-year-old daughter hosts Rachel's Choice: "five to six minutes of her favourite Christian music performed by regional bands, her reasons for liking it, and a Bible verse selected and read by her".
