Amazing!! I’m learning so much!

I listen to the podcast on the Hallow app. I am a non-denominational Christian and grew up as a Baptist, but have learning so much about the truth about Catholicism. There are a lot of misconceptions about the Catholic Church. I was taught different as a child in the differences about Protestant Christianity and Catholicism, when in reality there are a lot of similarities. It has given me a completely new perspective. Thank you so much and God Bless!

Thank you, all involved in the production of the podcast for the joy it brings me to know that each time I listen or follow along in my bible I am becoming more and more excited to continue to hear and understand GOD’s word.
This is vital.

Without this I may never have read the Bible. So thank you so much! My intention is to go all through this year and start again next year and do it again, and again and again until either the podcast is no longer available or I am gone.
