I especially appreciate Keith's exposition of the Mass readings. It helps me to teach my own kids and make sure we are all prepared for Mass. It helps me when I am diverting attention to my restless little children. I know where the reading is going and what was said if I have to step out. God bless you Keith and your ministry.
I appreciate all you do to help me understand the upcoming mass for the weekend. God bless you.
Keith always does an excellent job of explaining the weekly Bible readings from a faithfully catholic position.
I listen in every week. I listen to this podcast as well as bishop Barron and father Mike to prepare for mass. Keith is a humble guy who’s Protestant background gives him a particular love for scripture which I personally appreciate.
I really enjoy Keith’s podcasts and how passionate he is about the faith and Catholicism. I also get a kick out of how riled up he gets about Protestant objections and his rebuttals make perfect sense. Keep up the good work!!!
