  • Indispensable

    This bible study is now part of my weekly routine, I would hate to go to mass on Sunday without having listened. The presenters are sincere yet jovial, learned yet childlike. I really love it.

  • Profound interpretation of Sacred Scripture

    I love how deeply theological this Bible study helps explain the Word of God. It is a great way to prepare for the weekend’s readings. Nothing superficial about this podcast!

  • Immensely deepen Mass participation

    Listening to Sunday School every week has deeply changed the experience of Sunday Mass, taking time to go so deep into the readings, make connections, understand background, context, references etc has been profound and increased my love of scripture and Mass.

Judas’ betrayal and all the sandwiches
Q: Was Judas' betrayal the wicked act, or was it the dread and suicide that followed?
Judas' betrayal was definitely a wicked act, but it raises an interesting point about whether he also felt dread and despair afterwards, indicating a deeper complexity to his character.

Q: Do you think that the Apostles themselves would have, their understanding of this breathing exercise would have been creation-centric?
