Hi, I'm Dr. Scott Hahn, and I want to welcome you to the Road to Amos, a podcast from the St. Paul Center.

0:18.1

And we are here in the St. Paul Center studios with my good friend,

0:22.1

Ken O'Gorick. And we are here to discuss, but also to celebrate the completion of a trilogy of

0:30.0

commentaries on Scripture. Breaking the Bread, a biblical devotional for Catholics.
