"The priest is not a priest for himself; he does not give himself absolution; he does not administer the Sacraments to himself. He is not for himself. He is for you." -St. John Vianney

Customer Reviews
Inspirational and Informative
Mike and Dave are great evangelizers and catechists. Their content is relevant, informative, and doctrinal. Worth the time invested!
Great content but too much banter
The hosts do a great job providing clear teaching and insightful pedagogy. I am frequently frustrated that i have to get through 5-10 minutes of banter at the beginning of each podcast before they get i to their topic. Many other otherwise good Catholic podcasts have the same problem. I am guessing some people like this but I am sure that I am not alone in disliking it.
We are a gift. Capacity to receive:)
