The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)
Day 47: The Golden Calf
In today’s reading from Exodus 32, Fr. Mike shows us how when we become uncertain, we immediately try to take control of the situation, and build up idols in our hearts. We also read Leviticus 23 and Psalm 79.

The Bible in a Year – Day 164 – Tearing Down Idols
Fr. Mike points out the results of what happened to the kings who built idols, and what happened to the kings who tore them down. He encourages us to tear down the idols we’ve built up in our own lives by trusting God with our first fruits. Today’s readings are 1 Kings 14, 2 Chronicles 14-15, and Song of Solomon 3.

The Bible in a Year – Day 208 – The Futility of Idols
Fr. Mike explains the three ways the people are tempted to turn away from God while in exile: by not worshipping God the way He has asked, by worshipping false idols, and by being superstitious and fearful of false gods. Today’s reading are Isaiah 37-38, Baruch 5-6, and Proverbs 11:25-28.
