Bitter sweet to be on day 363, two days away from ending this amazing journey, The Bible In A Year with Father Mike. Bitter because this journey is almost complete. Sweet (1) because of how much this has changed me, growing my Faith. (2) because I get to restart this journey as many times as I want/need, growing my Faith even more. I am praying for you all, may God continue to Bless you, Amen 🙏🏽
Thank you so much BIAY family and all at Ascension, you are a gift from God father Mike , I will definitely start all over again with both BIAY and CIAY , heavenly father thank you in the name of Jesus your son,who lives and reigns with you forever . Amen….. Jesus I Trust in you🙏🙏🙏
Thank you dear Lord for Fr Mike opening every page of your Sacred Scriptures for us to nourish our souls. Help us dear Lord to always remember that you are the truth, the way and the life to follow you. Amen.
what an incredible blessing this has been for us. when my husband was getting treatments for cancer and when he was in the hospital and i was alone in a hotel room, it was such a comfort to listen to fr mike every night. God bless you, fr. mike and all those who made this possible. i pray for you always. and this community.
Gina, I prayed for you and your husband. It's been nearly a year and whatever God's plans are, know that He is always with you. Recall during this time in the BIAY, we read from Proverbs chapter 31, Praise of a Good Wife. I see you as the Good Wife. God Bless, your friend in Christ. 12/30/2022
@@rm-paradise thank you for your kindness. my husband won't see much of this new year. but, we "do not grieve in the same way as the others, who have no hope." The Lord is my Strength and my Song.
Thank you so much for explaining why the ascension of Jesus is so important. Thanks for explaining why Jesus is the answer to all the sacrifices that have been made and how he is the ultimate sacrifice.
Thank you Father Mike for sharing the bible with all of us. It is a true blessing to be able to not only read but understand the words of God. Praying for Father Mike and anyone who is in need of prayers
God Bless You Fr. Mike FOREVER AMEN🙏 for you are a Blessed Man AMEN🙏 God Bless The People Of The World Help Them To See The Truth Of The Father God JESUS CHRIST FOREVER AMEN🙏
Yes thank you Father Mike I'm glad we're going to be able to do this all over again at the beginning of the year I'm looking forward to it anyway I'm praying for you thank you for always praying for me and all my community thank you all right night night
Thank you Fr Mike and praise God for you. Thank God for the internet! We are brothers and sisters in this enlightening journey which will continue............
Ima gonna start all over again. I Really enjoy this. Uplifting my Old Sinners Soul. Praise be to You Lord Jesus Christ. Thank You Fr. Mike for taking your time Everyday, Bless You
Me too! I can’t wait to start all over again for 2024! Hopefully each year will make the gaps in my memory gradually fill in and I will benefit more and more. Thankyou for this amazing gift of the BIAY! Such a blessing for us all.
Father mike. I want you to know I have never lost my why. You and the words of the lord have brought t the peace I so desperately needed. I feel things intensely and the chaos around me was leaving me so s distraught. I listen every night, and I find peace. I will be starting day one the first as I just finished day 364. 365 tomorrow. That itself is a miracle, as I’m not one for routine or habit. I taught for 44 years and loved every minute of it. I often sad and a child’s desk and prayed to be able to help him or her. Not often enough. Thank you father Mike, thank you God. With love from a non-Catholic member of your community Karen
Thank you, Father Mike. And Praise the Lord that you are truly a gift 🎁 to all of us. You have brought us together, closer and closer everyday to Him. ♥️
Thank you so much, Father Mike, for reading the Bible to us and giving us many inspired words to help us know and love God more. Your gratitude for Jesus' entrance into the heavenly Holy of Holies to plead mercy for us with the sacrifice of himself fills our hearts with thankfulness for what Christ has done for us. God bless you. You're in my daily prayers.

@@rachellarochelle My wife and I have the new Catechism from Ascension and will be starting with Fr. Mike on New Year's Day 2023 to begin another fruitful year. Thank you, Fr., Mike! We were following BIAY in 2022.
Fr Mike. Your heartfelt commentary and explanations have pierced our souls indelibly. We are all forever changed because of you bringing us closer to Christ. 🙏🏻
The Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ, explanation, entering into the actual true Holy of Holies. Thank you so much Father Mike. Will be doing this again January 1, 2022. God bless!
Now that I've done it everyday, I'll feel really empty if I don't listen to the scripture any more. Besides I don't remember all the stories so want to go back
Hard to believe that we have just one more day of study. Thank you to everyone who was so encouraging. Thank you to all who took my advice to listen to the Marian Press Podcast/TH-cam of Saint Faustina’s Diary in a Year. You have brought me a lot of joy. I pray I will see you all again at the Catechism in a Year starting January, 2023. Dawn Mireles December 25, 2022
Dawn, your daily support and message has carried me through the year easily. I looked forward to your inspiration and enthusiasm in your comments daily. Thank you. I too will be joining you with Fr Mike's reading of CIAY. I took notes in my bible during my second time with the BIAY and it is now a treasured gift. I'll be doing the same next year with CIAY. I started a little late with St Faustina's DIAY by Fr Roesch and the Marian Press, but will finish it. Sister Faustina is such an inspiration with deep faith thanks for introducing me to this podcast. I wish you health and happiness in 2023. Your friend in Christ. 12/30/2022
Thank you many times over Fr. Mike. This journey has been and continues to be a true blessing. I am without words... I am humbled by all who have accomplished this journey day in and day out over the last 364 days; and I can't believe I was there with you all. Praise be to God. May God bless everyone who continues to follow Our Lord's Word. I'm praying for you all. Happy Day 364!! One to go and a new year to start again.
I'm finishing tonight and started January 1 this year. Now i understand God's mind, attitude and plan and how people obeyed and disobeyed and faced their consequences, positive and negative, and learned the entirety of Christianity. It gave meaning to my faith multiplied 1000x. Intimacy with God every moment is what God wants according to the entire Bible and leaving that intimacy any single moment predispose us to sin. I now stay in that intimacy and it's so good and am at peace even in tumult. I now have a new heart, one burning with love, unlike before, a heart burning with anger and anxieties. I learned compassion being comprehension and love for enemies. Good luck and God bless.
A tip for these series types. Don’t get discouraged when you miss a day. Just skip it and move to the current day (you can make it up after you watch the current day, just don’t stress if you don’t).
I have always read my bible, but have never fully grasp the full meaning. when I started the BIY January 1st 2022 I never thought that I would get though it. Thank you fr Mike and all those at Ascension presents may God bless you all I cannot wait for January 2023 for CIY

I am so sad to be at the end of BIAY with Fr. Mike and this community of believers. Yet, I am excited that I received the BIAY Notebook for Christmas. I am planning to go round the sun again with this podcast to write down some of the commentary from Fr. Mike, so I will have his explanations to refer to no matter what book in the Bible I am reading in the future. This BIAY journey has been amazing and a real gift to read the Bible in almost chronological order for the first time. Thank you BIAY team! I praise your steadfast commitment to bringing us this podcast every single day of 2021. God Bless You Forever!
@ Catherine Link. Like you, I'm finishing up my second time with the BIAY. Near the end of the 1st year, I started taking notes and comments daily. Now I have a bible full of Fr Mikes notes and explanations. This is a great gift, I hope you enjoy your BIAY Notebook as well for many years to come. Starting in January 2023, I plan to do likewise with Fr Mike's Catholic Catechism in a year podcast. Your friend in Christ. 12/30/2022
Fr. Mike, Thank you so very much for all you give in these sessions. I have completed my first trip through the Bible and will be joining next year for the CIY journey and will be doing the BIY again. God Bless you and all you do for all of us. I will keep you in my prayers.
Mike W. I completed BIY and during the second time around, took Fr Mike's notes and comments in the margins of my bible, it helps me to remember (funny so much I had forgotten). My bible is now a great gift to me. I will join you for the CIY journey and be taking notes again. Wishing you the best in 2023. Your friend in Christ. 12/30/2022
Good friends, thank you for carrying me along in your prayers. This is my second time around with you. Continue to pray for me and I will do likewise for you. Please pray for the holy souls and specifically the most forgotten soul in Purgatory so their souls can be softened to enter into the Kingdom of God forever. 12/30/2022
Once again..... Thank you. Thank you. I am so thankful that I could do this Bible in a year podcast two years in a row #2021 and #2022 I am so, so excited to start the new podcast with Father Mike Schmitz and Ascension Presents in #2023 which is The Catechism of The Church in a year podcast. Father Mike is a blessing to us for giving us this pricelss teachings of The Church. Viva Cristo Rey who is The KING of kings and The LORD of lords. Praise The Lord o my soul, praise The Lord o my soul.
Thank you, Father Mike. I’m one who never subscribed because I listened on Halo. I will start listening from the beginning again starting on January 1st. I looked forward each day to meeting with my fellow listeners in this place called The Bible in a Year. As a lifelong Catholic I knew the Bible, but I didn’t understand all of it. It is important that I’ve received greater insight through this journey. Some of my loved ones have fallen away from the Church. I now have greater knowledge to respond to their objections. I always knew why I believed in the faith, but I couldn’t always articulate how it related to scripture in a way that would make sense to them. Now I do. I will miss the adventure of the past year. But I can begin the journey again. Again, thank you, Father. You and my fellow journeymen are in my prayers. A blessed, grace filled and very happy New Year to you all!
Thank you Father Mike you have been with me through this whole journey and I'm glad it was you. May the Lord protect keep using you to help us understand more about his grace. I'm praying for you 🙏 .
I thank you to the BIAY community, Ascension Press and Father Mike! And foremost, I thank you, our Almighty God for Your love and mercy for all of us. Amen. ❤🙏 31/12/2022 🎉
Thank you so, so much Father Mike and Ascension Presnet and the whole team who made this podcast of the Bible in a year. I can not believe that it is only one day left of this Bible in a year podcast left to be done / compteted. I am definitely going to start this BIY podcast from day one next year which is in two days..... I am started with day one on January First of 2022. BIY 2021 I started a little bit late. God bless you Fathe r MIke and company. Lord God please help me with the conversion of my whole family, friends, coworkers and neoghbors and whoever I have met through my journey in Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Do the will of Lord, and receive what HE gives. Thank you, Father Mike and all listeners, my brothers and sisters, for the endurance you provide it to me.
It's been an incredible journey to listen to the Word of God for 364 days. I never thought that I would make it through but I did and I am so happy and so proud of this accomplishment. Thank you, thank you Father Mike! ❤
Praying for you Fr. Mike. I can't wait for the start of the new Bible in a Year series as I did not catch it from the beginning the first time. God Bless this ministry; what an incredible journey!
I began this journey on Jan 1, 2022. One day left I guess but after this episode I'm going to day 1 to start the cycle again and then finish. God bless you all
Thank you Fr. Mike for this informative and beautiful trip through the Bible. My wife is going to start on Jan. 1. I will join her and I know I will learn more about the Old and New Testament on my second year of Bible
Tomorrow will be my birthday, what a gift, I will finish Bible in A Year on my 82nd birthday 🎂 🎊 🎉Thank you Father Mike for helping me achieve that gift 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎉please pray for me for me to get there, to receive that gift. You.

Thank you Father Mike! I can't believe that today is day 365. I am looking forward to start the journey with You and the community again on the first of the year. God bless you Father Mike 🙏❤
Thank you is not enough. There are really no words that can express how your message has opened the eyes of my heart. I am very grateful for the gift. On January 1st I will start CIY....who says an old dog can't learn new tricks??
Thank you for sharing this biay you are blessed and explains the Bible so easy to understand Merry Christmas keep praying for us to continue praying amen 12/24/22 9.27 am
Skanderberg - I hope you kept plugging away, a year later, hopefully you have finished it. It may seem daunting, but the journey is worth so it. Not sure if you know, but Fr Mike will be reading Catholic Catechism in a year in 2023. Your friend in Christ 12/30/2022.
I'm a couple of days out so will listen to something again......thank you Fr Mike I couldn't have done this without you. I feel truly blessed. Praying for you and everyone here. God bless🙏❤️🙏
I CANNOT WAIT to hear you again..! ❤👍🏻 One more to go..! I am ALWAYS praying for you..! Please pray for me..!!! ❤👍🏻🙏🏻 Do we just ‘die’ never knowing whether or not we’re going to heaven..?? So sad.. I can’t believe He’d do that to us, if we’ve tried so hard..! It seems that fear of not going to heaven precludes us from being happy on our way..!! I’ll keep praying that I’m doing the right things to get to heaven..!
This makes my second year through this, although I think I accidentally managed to skip a few somehow, as tomorrow isn’t the last day of the year. Well shucks! Either way this has been great! I look so forward to restarting this January 1st. This is my treasure box. Every day is a priceless gift, a nugget of God’s Word I get to enjoy. Oh what a gift this has been! Thank you! I’m praying for this wonderful ministry. Thanks Father Mike!

Well, Fr. Mike, I do not believe I made it to the end...well, one more day! Many have repeated this a second time. I would like to at some point in time. I will be doing the CIY starting January 1, 2023. I can't wait. And I'm sure I will hear those famous words, "I can't wait to talk to you tomorrow!" BTW, I am on week eight of the Bible Timeline. I would recommend that to all who haven't gone through that course. My question to you is this: How did this BIAY change you? Please feel free to reply.
Babylon is perhaps the symbol of our wickedness made into realities, a city of sin and death where God is not welcomed, and to those who follow Him truthfully, they will have persecution because they do not join the evils of Babylon.
JoJo_McElwee. Just dropping you a line to say I said a prayer for you today. As this is the 2nd time with Fr Mike, you and many others have become like friends with sometimes simple emojis and notes that you were there, or with testimonies and medicals of their lives. Keep up the work and maybe I'll see you on Catechism in a Year with Fr Mike and the Ascension team. 12/30/2022

Praise The Lord o my soul, praise The Lord o my soul.
Wow, thank you. What a great meditation for the second Glorious mystery of the Rosary!!
Thank you, Father Mike. I’m one who never subscribed because I listened on Halo. I will start listening from the beginning again starting on January 1st. I looked forward each day to meeting with my fellow listeners in this place called The Bible in a Year. As a lifelong Catholic I knew the Bible, but I didn’t understand all of it. It is important that I’ve received greater insight through this journey. Some of my loved ones have fallen away from the Church. I now have greater knowledge to respond to their objections. I always knew why I believed in the faith, but I couldn’t always articulate how it related to scripture in a way that would make sense to them. Now I do. I will miss the adventure of the past year. But I can begin the journey again.
Again, thank you, Father. You and my fellow journeymen are in my prayers. A blessed, grace filled and very happy New Year to you all!
😊🤗🎊🎉🎼🙏
“I write to you, young men,
because you are strong and the word of God remains in you,
and you have conquered the Evil One.”
Amen
Thank you Father Mike you have been with me through this whole journey and I'm glad it was you. May the Lord protect keep using you to help us understand more about his grace. I'm praying for you 🙏 .
I thank you to the BIAY community, Ascension Press and Father Mike! And foremost, I thank you, our Almighty God for Your love and mercy for all of us. Amen. ❤🙏 31/12/2022 🎉
Thanks For The Year Of The Fr Mike Amen JMJ ❤

Just commenting on 30 Dec 2021. I'm still in day 128.will reply when I reach here
Skanderberg - I hope you kept plugging away, a year later, hopefully you have finished it. It may seem daunting, but the journey is worth so it. Not sure if you know, but Fr Mike will be reading Catholic Catechism in a year in 2023. Your friend in Christ 12/30/2022.
I'm a couple of days out so will listen to something again......thank you Fr Mike I couldn't have done this without you. I feel truly blessed. Praying for you and everyone here. God bless🙏❤️🙏
I CANNOT WAIT to hear you again..! ❤👍🏻 One more to go..! I am ALWAYS praying for you..! Please pray for me..!!! ❤👍🏻🙏🏻 Do we just ‘die’ never knowing whether or not we’re going to heaven..?? So sad.. I can’t believe He’d do that to us, if we’ve tried so hard..! It seems that fear of not going to heaven precludes us from being happy on our way..!! I’ll keep praying that I’m doing the right things to get to heaven..!
This makes my second year through this, although I think I accidentally managed to skip a few somehow, as tomorrow isn’t the last day of the year. Well shucks! Either way this has been great! I look so forward to restarting this January 1st. This is my treasure box. Every day is a priceless gift, a nugget of God’s Word I get to enjoy. Oh what a gift this has been! Thank you! I’m praying for this wonderful ministry. Thanks Father Mike!
Love The Holy Trinity, Revelation, Hebrews, Proverbs & all of you!!💞🙏🎼
Thank you Fr. Mike 😇🙏
I came in halfway so I've got to go back for the first half. Thank you 👍🎄🎅🎁💞
Proverbs 31
The Capable Wife
26 - She speaks with a gentle wisdom.
27 - She is always busy and looks after her family's needs.
28 - Her children show their appreciation, and her husband praises her.
29 - He says, " Many women are good wives, but you are the best of them all. "

Berry Berry, because of you, I now often look at other translations to get a different meaning. I look forward to your daily TEVV translation from Proverbs - thank you. I hope to see you next year in CIY. Wishing you the best in 2023. Your friend in Christ. 12/30/2022

Well, Fr. Mike, I do not believe I made it to the end...well, one more day! Many have repeated this a second time. I would like to at some point in time. I will be doing the CIY starting January 1, 2023. I can't wait. And I'm sure I will hear those famous words, "I can't wait to talk to you tomorrow!" BTW, I am on week eight of the Bible Timeline. I would recommend that to all who haven't gone through that course. My question to you is this: How did this BIAY change you? Please feel free to reply.
❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Babylon is perhaps the symbol of our wickedness made into realities, a city of sin and death where God is not welcomed, and to those who follow Him truthfully, they will have persecution because they do not join the evils of Babylon.

JoJo_McElwee. Just dropping you a line to say I said a prayer for you today. As this is the 2nd time with Fr Mike, you and many others have become like friends with sometimes simple emojis and notes that you were there, or with testimonies and medicals of their lives. Keep up the work and maybe I'll see you on Catechism in a Year with Fr Mike and the Ascension team. 12/30/2022
