Besides addressing some of the lesser scandals surrounding the Catholic Church today, Bishop Strickland seeks, in this episode of The Bishop Strickland Hour, to catechize listeners on Christ's Ascension. Bishop Strickland explains the Feast of the Ascension and shares his biblical exegesis.

Customer Reviews
Great Catholic podcast
I’ve listened to Matthew speak before and was very happy to stumble across this show. You’re on my playlist now. I appreciate the no-nonsense approach
Frustrated
This is my favorite Catholic podcast & I never miss an episode. However, for some reason, the audio blanks out out every few minutes. It can be very frustrating to listen to! Can you please correct this? Is it recorded in the same studio as Terry and Jesse show? Thank you! God bless.
Its Matt Arnold. Need i say more?
Seriously.
