0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Catechism in a year podcast,
0:09.1	where we encounter God's plan of sheer goodness for us, revealed in scripture and passed down through the tradition of the Catholic faith.
0:16.2	The Catechism in a year is brought to you by ascension.
0:18.7	In 365 days, we'll read through the Catechism

1:07.2	to the Old Testament, the New Testament, specifically speaking in the Gospels.

1:16.6	needs to be adamant about this, or is adamant about this, and that is the unity of the Old
1:21.5	and New Testaments. Again, I mentioned this yesterday, but there are so many people who have this
1:26.6	thought that because of the
