Day 19: Summary of Sacred Scripture (2025)

This monologue podcast episode of "Catechism in a Year" focuses on day 19's reading from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, specifically paragraphs 134-141. Fr. Mike Schmitz introduces the "InBrief Day," highlighting eight key points summarizing the section on Divine Revelation. He emphasizes the unity of scripture, pointing out that the Bible's 73 books (46 Old Testament, 27 New Testament) all point to Christ. The episode stresses the importance of both the literal and spiritual interpretation of scripture (exegesis, not eisegesis), and concludes by comparing the reverence given to scripture with the reverence given to the Eucharist. Listeners are encouraged to engage with scripture daily.
