Take and Eat: The Bible and the Mass
God, as a great novelist, has written into creation His plan from all eternity: communion with humanity. It is through the Eucharist—in His Parousia, His presence—that He remains with His people.

The Bible in a Year – Introduction to the Early World
Welcome to the official start of the Bible in a Year Podcast! We’ll begin reading the Bible in the episode “Day 1: In the Beginning”, but before we dig into scripture, Jeff Cavins joins Fr. Mike Schmitz to lay out the context for the Early World period (Genesis 1-11). They discuss the type of scripture we’ll encounter (Hebrew poetry) and how that affects our understanding of the Word. This episode is not part of the 365 day reading plan, but is important to help understand the readings from this period.
