Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast, where we

encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of scripture. The Bible in a year podcast is brought

to you by Ascension. Using the Great Adventure Bible timeline, we'll read all the way from Genesis to

Revelation, discovering how the story of salvation unfolds and how we fit into that story.

Today, it is day 123. It is day one, two, three. We are reading from seconds. to Revelation, discovering how the story of salvation unfolds and how we fit into that story today.

It is day 123. It is day one, two, three. We are reading from Second Samuel, chapter four.

We're also reading two chapters out of First Chronicles, chapters five and six. We're also praying

Psalm 26. As always, I am reading from the revised standard version, second Catholic edition.

I'm using the Great Adventure Bible from Ascension. If you want to download your own Bible in a year reading plan, you can visit ascensionpress.com

And when everyone does that, I will no longer say that what you can't this thing at the

beginning of every single day. But 123 days, my goodness, you guys, I'm so proud

to you. Keep going also, also, chapter four is relatively short in Second Samuel. And there are

some names, not as many names as in chapters five and six of First Chronicles, the name is ishibesh right or ishpishath

i've kind of fully committed to ishibishath and so i apologize if you're you're annoyed you look

reading your bible and it's that you say it says ishbasheth and i would say you're probably right

but i'm committed to ishibchath and so it's also fun to say. Just try it.

Try it at home.

Try it in your car as you're driving.

It is a gift to be able to be here.
