So good! FINALLY posting a year almost three years in! This is my first audio version of the Catechism and I'm so thankful for it because the material read can be pretty boring and legalistic. Fr. Mike is a bit of a goof and I wish he'd developed a brief, rote "please rate and subscribe" statement, but the daily Catechism reading, context, and analysis are wonderful! I highly recommend, thanks Ascension!
Don’t make excuses for spouses that cheat and leave their spouses spare me they aren’t following Christ or their vows and are destroying their families children permanently!!!
Thank you, Fr. Mike and Ascension, for your “Yes!” to continue to let the Holy Spirit use you and your platforms to transform hearts and minds!! I am learning so much from the bite size pieces of the Catechism of the Catholic Church! Loved the Bible In A Year podcast!! On Day 254 of the CIY podcast. I am praying for you and for the CIY/BIY communities!
Thank you Father Mike, thank for giving us the guilt free feeling when listening to you. Life happens and I have decided that it doesn’t matter what life brings, I will always put God first and listening to you brings me peace. I thank you so much. Praying for you always. 🙏♥️
I have done bible in a year and am now more than half way through this series. Bite size bits of the catechism all well explained and then a commentary.
