The Bible in a Year podcast is hosted by Fr. Mike Schmitz and is produced by Ascension Press.

It adds, “Unlike any other Bible podcast, Ascension’s Bible in a Year podcast follows a reading plan inspired by The Great Adventure Bible Timeline, a ground-breaking approach to understanding salvation history developed by renowned Catholic Bible scholar Jeff Cavins. For each period in the timeline, Jeff will join Fr. Mike for a special episode that will help you understand the context of each reading.”
The description concludes, “With this podcast, you won’t just read the Bible in a year … you’ll finally understand how all the pieces of the Bible fit together to tell an amazing story that continues in your life today!”
The podcast is available to listen on the Ascension Press website, the Hallow App, Apple Podcasts, and even on YouTube.
