Summary

Fr. Mike reminds us that God uses crooked lines to make a straight story, like Paul’s witness to Priscilla and Aquila as they encounter the person of Christ and become missionaries. Just like Apollos accepted correction, Fr. Mike invites us to courageously open ourselves up to learning and growing. Today’s readings are Acts 18, 1 Corinthians 16, and Proverbs 28:19-21.

Hi, my name's 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 unfold and how we fit into that story today. It is day 339, reading from the Acts of the Apostles, Chapter 18, as well as First Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians, chapter 16, the conclusion of the St. Paul's first letter to the Corinthians. And Proverbs chapter 28 versus 19 through 21. As always, the Bible translation I'm reading from is 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

After this, he left Athens and went to Corinth. And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native

of Pontus, lately come from Italy with his wife Priscilla because Claudius had commanded

1:09.5

all the Jews to leave Rome.

1:11.5

And he went to see them. And because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them, and they worked,

1:16.0

for by trade they were tentmakers. And he argued in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and

Greeks. When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with preaching,

1:26.3

testifying to the Jews that the Christ

was Jesus. And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them,

Your blood be upon your heads. I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles. And he left there

one night in a vision, do not be afraid, but speak, and do not be silent. For I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you. For I have been in a vision. Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not be silent, for I am with you, and no man shall
