Friends, recently I had the privilege of speaking with Fr. Mike Schmitz, the host of the popular podcast “The Bible in a Year” and a contributor at Ascension Presents. We cover a variety of topics in our conversation, including our vocation stories, our early starts to our YouTube content, our favorite movies, arguing on social media, and much more. We share what inspired us to take creative new approaches to the Bible, and how the success of these projects reveals a hunger for a deeper understanding of Scripture.
