Hi everyone. Welcome back to logical Bible study. This is the Catholic ministry that's all about

helping you understand the Bible, particularly from the perspective of the literal sense.

What do the words mean on the most fundamental level? What is the author trying to convey to their audience? And as Catholics,

we believe and the church teaches that if you want to understand the Bible, that's where you need to

start with the literal sense. So this is a small ministry, but our goal is to every day help you understand the gospel readings for today's Mass.

So before you get to Mass, you can listen to this podcast or maybe after Mass to help you understand the reading in a bit more in-depth way.

I know so many of you listeners have benefited from this ministry.

So if you have, can I please ask you to leave a review on iTunes or on

YouTube or wherever you listen to this podcast? Because this ministry is not supported by other

larger ministries. So really the only way to get the word spread about this ministry is by you

leaving reviews and you telling other people and then more and more people can hear about it.

So please consider leaving a review next time. Your device prompts you to do that.

And just a reminder that there are bonus episodes available for you if you become a Patreon supporter.

So most of the four Gospels are covered at Mass throughout the year, but there's about 20%

of the Gospels which are not covered.

So if you want to hear an exegesis of those additional texts which are never read at

Mass, then please check out the Patreon page and we go through verse by verse, just as we do

in the normal podcast.

We go through those bonus episodes verse by verse.

So through the Patreon page, if you decide to become a financial supporter of the ministry,

you can get access to an entire verse by verse exegesis of all four gospels from start to finish.

So please prayerfully consider partnering with a ministry that way.
