- Fr. Mike Schmitz, the host of the popular podcasts The Bible in a Year and The Catechism in a Year, joins Dive Deep to discuss what many Catholics don't realize about their faith, how faithful Catholics can get our lukewarm brothers and sisters back to the faith, what we should do if God "doesn't answer our prayers," and so much more.

I'm Protestant and I'm doing the Catechism in a year with Fr. Mike. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you Charlotte. If you decide to become Catholic we will welcome you with open arms.
In Northern Ireland a protestant could not decide to become a Catholic because the Catholics would not accept them in their community areas .....and they wouldn't be able to stay with their families in a Protestant area so it would be absolutely impossible. There may not be bombing anymore in Belfast, but there are certainly still deep divisions in the two communities

So happy to have you be a part of the listening family for the podcast!
Father Mike catechism in a year
Thank you God thank you so much for Father Mike Schmitz, may his mom rest in peace.
I always enjoy hearing Father Mike talk about the faith. He is very relatable and genuine.
We love you, Father Mike! I hope I can meet you in person someday. I’m praying for you. Please pray for me.
information flows much better online. I love learning with Father everyday
I am grateful for Fr. Mike and Ascension Presents. I started Bible in a Year January 1st and decided around January 15th I wanted to to Catechism in a Year as well so I doubled up for a couple of weeks. Every day I press play for Bible and then the Catechism after. I never thought I would stick with it and we're on day 92 and I absolutely love it. I would never be able to get through it without Fr. Mike. He makes it all make sense.
Did you keep doubling up? was that overwhelming at all? I ask because I am about to start The Bible in a Year and want to just know all of it sooner (perhaps i'm rushing myself) but if it is better to focus on one first before the other maybe I should do that instead. Thanks in advance. From Australia
Thank you, Father Mike, for all you do. You are saving souls for Christ.
Thank you Fr Mike! All your words are perfectly stated . I am so glad I seen this on you tube. Another make my day moment!
Thank you, Fr Mike, for your steadfastness and perseverance in the faith. You have brought knowledge of our faith to those of us who were not properly taught in our youth. God Bless and please keep on, keeping on. Claire.
😅
Fr Schmidt this was great
I can’t get enough of learning from you and loving God more and more
Sorry about your mom but I want to know if you buried her with that white towel that she received on your ordination day
He did. He put it in her coffin after kissing it and wiping his tears with it. You can watch the funeral Mass that Fr. Mike presided. It’s on TH-cam
I wanted to say also, My mom is the 76 year old that fell away from the church 50 years ago and listened to the Bible last year, because of your podcast.
I am Father Mike in that I’ve had to pray about anger.
I’ve acted the exact same way….
Saying I didn’t want to do something when I did; was just nervous and got attacked by the evil one.
Father Mike, is so smart,humble ,
Personable 🙏
Back in my elementary/ high school years, I was so confused why I get so angry with my family as we pray the Rosary together, didn't know it was an evil attack. Sadly, we stopped it and just pray our own when we want too. I get so mad with little things like how they respond, so slow or fast, crazy reasons. Had an anger issue in the past as well, thanks to these Holy priests online whom I learned so much & motivate me to go back to the Church, strengthen my relationahip to our Dear Saviour, Jesus Christ! Blessings to you Fr. & all the priests worldwide
I don’t know how old you are but I am 72. And last year I came back to the church after separating myself for over 50 years. One of my strongest memories was my family saying the rosary together when I was young. I believe that stayed with me in the most powerful way. Let’s pray for each other on our life and faith journey 🙏♥️
It is easier for us to pray or to go to daily mass if we really love God and could feel His love in return. God is very loving, we have to keep talking to Him throughout the day and night. We thank Him when we realize that He helps us, and we share with Him our troubles, stress, worries, heartaches, and we ask Him for guidance and strength in return. We will feel His love and His thoughts, and it will move us at times. We ask God to reign in us and we live in God and with God forever and ever.
The Bible in a year truly was a God send; connecting the dots!
I love it and I was introduced to it by a friend.
I then introduced it to my daughter and Grandaughter, mother and Son.
It just spreads like a wild fire
THANK YOU/ AMEN 🙏
Thanks to God, for the gift of the Bible in a year program through Fr Mike. Hearing the explanation given by Fr Mike helps to understand the connection between the Old Testament n Christ, specially that Christ was the Rock for us to get living water,in the OT Moses strikes the rock at Meriba for giving water in the desert He was the On the Cross just like Moses made the serpent on the Rod to cure those who were bitten by the snake in the wilderness . God bless you Fr Mike 🙏
Make your children go to church or Mass with you and study together.
Love Fr. Mike. His break it down barney style way of saying such huge things is a gift.
Fr. Mike, I believe!! Thank you for both The Catechism and The Bible In a Year!!
Excited to listen!^_^💯❤
Nooo. It wasn’t about habit. What we saw was: priests didn’t think it was important for healing then why should we? That was the time for priests to hold clandestine, resistance masses. I was disappointed but we went back. With a vengeance
Catholic more power..May the Holy spirit guiding to all
2:00 - In all the NDE accounts that I watch, almost all say that when they went to the other side, they felt the kind of love directed at them that they never knew was possible.
I follow the Bible in a Year and Catechism in a year podcast. I pray everyday that God provide the time of day to listen to the podcast. Just like everyone else, my day gets busy as soon as I wake up. God always provides a quiet time and place. Usually before everyone else wakes up. But if that doesn't work out, God gives me the patience to wait for the right time. Also, I don't Just listen, I read along with Father Mike. I think it's important to aquire the knowledge and skill I need to talk to others about God's plan of Salvation through his Son Jesus Christ.
Just want to say thank you, Father. This and many of your other videos have done so much for my family and myself. God Bless
Q
Hello Father Mike. First of all I'm sorry for your loss. May your mom rest in peace and may God give comfort to your family. I do not know if you will read this, I hope you do. What I wanted to talk to you about is that my husband turned to sedevacantism, and I do not know what to do. He has renounce the Catholic church, he says that the sedevacantist is the true Catholic church. Is like being married to a protestant since he goes to church with us but does not get communion, only once a month in a sedevacantist mass and he turn to it without telling us (me and our children), his brother took him and convince him that that church is the right one. Please if you could do a podcast or something that could make him understand that he is not in the right path. He says that the Pope is an heretic and that is why he switch. Blessings!
Prayers up
Yes, deliberate criticism of the pope is a huge current problem but what we don't need is a bunch of little "popes" running around like as you alluded to in the Protestant movement; receiving once a month as a symbol. The Catholic Faith doesn't require us to like, love or honor the pope but it does require a deep sense of community and unity. No one should leave the Church over something the pope said or more likely is spun by the media completely out of context. The examples are clear choices; either be like St Francis of Assisi or be like Martin Luther, unity or division.
I was raised French Catholic Faith for 22 years. Father Catholic & mother Protestant. My husband was the grandson of a Lutheran minister that became atheist. My husband died after 3 years of terminal care & I just returned to the church. I am a lecter. I listen to Bible & Catechism in a year. I go to mass daily. I find our priest disagreeable. He doesn’t like old people, or ill people, yet wants our money as we our awaiting the building of a new Church. Only back 5 months, I am questioning if I want to continue in this process. If our own priest doesn’t care why would God? Jeanne ( retired RN)
@@cametientaucoeur Even though man may fail, God never fails us. He keeps His promises. Something that helped me understand it better was a priest who told me that if a medicine was brought to me by a good doctor or bad doctor, the medicine is the same, it won’t change.
Based on what you’re writing, I believe you’re being obedient and faithful regardless of how your priest is. I’m sure our Heavenly Father is so pleased seeing you persevere.
Also, if you feel it in your heart to go to another Catholic parish, you can ask God to guide you to it. Many blessings :)
Zoo.😍
Father Mike ty for being such a great instrument of God in bringing honor and glory to God bringing people to Jim separating the wheat from the weed

*For everything there is a time
*Do justice, love mercy, walk humbly with God..
* My people are destroyed for lack of (Godly) knowledge and understanding (&wisdom)...
*The whole world tries to block & steal your Godliness..
*Test the spirits (&people) and dont be decieved..
*Great & powerful prayerfulness is a Christians birthright and obligation
*All that is wrong is based on unGodliness, foolishness, unprayerfulness and sin..
*All Christians are born into Spiritual warfare and most dont know it or do it....

*God is in control and not the evildoers & God always wins
Great questions! I've heard Fr. Mike speak/interviewed a few times and this was most insightful one yet due to the good questions asked.
Thank you Eliza!
Jesus encourages us to use our creative gifts to share with oceans of Love with others ❤
Thank you Father Mike

Saint Joseph, Terror of demons, help! Thanks be to God that they flee from you even when you dream! Please please help us especially today, your feast, Sunday, March 19, 2023 - Fourth Sunday of Lent!
Blessings for Father Mike and all priests! Holy God through sacrament of confession crush our sins, destroy our fears, heal our brokenness in a world that is bent out of shape because souls refuse to conform to Your love and mercy! Peace of Christ to all who read this!
Отец Майк :-)
Why most of the Catholics always talk about how to bring people to the church or some church's activities, whereas God cares about the truthfullness of oour faith in Him first, not a membership in the church or all the activities of it. Bring people to Jesus and he will lead them to the church and all other things of religious performances!
I agree. I built a relationship with God by seeking within myself and taking action to face myself and grow. The Catholic Church is not the only way to God!
Why has you're god no problem😊 seeing billions spent on churches to worship him and this same god has no problem seeing millions of children starve to death and being eaten alive by flies because of lack of money. Oh Oh Oh does man's free will cover this. This has to be the perfect loving god
People have left the church because of how the church is not teaching the bible, rather their teaching socialism and politics through the current Pope.
Matthew 6:6 'Pray in private..' Do not ignore. 'Whatsoever things are lovely.. think on these things..' Why discuss things that are not lovely?
I agree...I'm praying for families who have lost their Faith & don't attend Mass. There's a disconnect with young families who are going through the motions of sending their kids to Catechism to make their First Communion, thereafter, parents don't follow through with studying towards Confirmation...I was recently told by my niece with two children 10 and 13 years old. Her son's friends have stopped going to church after making their Communion....I was saddened to hear. Where is the future of these children???
please help me keep devil away from me , please help me to heal by serious copd too long i think 10 years stuffer feet legs and my chest of lungs . it was full of fluid in my lungs > i never smoke but second smoke that i smell people smoke too long . wheeze was very bad too long all my life please help clear my body to turn normal please thank you Lord Father of King, Lord Son of God King I believe in you also Holy Spirit I believe in you Trillions of Amen Thank you very much and i am Deaf
Amazing Grace
I am so sorry to hear about your mom.
Are we giving our/others the Baptized Christ to our children Or our Self. 1 John 4 -is it Christ in faith incarnate or we allowing Satan to use our free will which GodSonHolySpirit gave us❗️
If you don’t see God unless we see ChristGodHolySpirit in faith. All people believe in a God even if it’s Self. IAMWHOIAM
and I see again every of dozens PMSch on the YT because I follow AP again, I had to be prepared :D And as I watch american enthusiastic replays on How Are You I remember Bill Bailey's (Manny from black books sitcom) "not so bad british answer" standup performance.
The Christian family is missionary: it announces the love of God to the world.
Pope Francis
Weaknesses is power or evill of power's ? What is evill ?
Young and powerful mussel of body and thought with power is order for only protect less, against savior, hard to humbleness whynot ? Becouse his power for more powerfull are wrong, controll for ?
You definately have a serious problem
The West gets so much wrong about Jesus, The Spirit, and the Father. The West is misleading. God bless the Orthodox.
