Day 152: Being Forgotten (2026)

Mike Schmitz· Host0:00

[gentle music] Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Bible in a Year podcast, where we encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of Scripture. The Bible in a Year podcast is brought to you by Ascension. Using the Great Adventure Bible timeline, we'll read all the way from Genesis to Revelation, discovering how the story of salvation unfolds and how we fit into that story today. Today is day one hundred and fifty-two, and we are reading from 1 Kings chapter ten, Ecclesiastes chapters eight and nine, and Psalm eight. As always, the Bible translation that I'm reading from is the Revised Standard Version, the Second Catholic Edition, and I am using the Great Adventure Bible from Ascension. If you want to download your own Bible in a Year reading plan, you can visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear, and you can subscribe to this podcast by clicking on Subscribe and [laughs] you know the drill.

He is rich. He is super rich. Um, we're also coming closer and closer. The day after tomorrow, we're encountering our second Messianic checkpoint. So just the day after tomorrow, we're gonna begin Mark chapters one and two. So excited to go back to the Gospels after it's been, you know, a while since. It's been a minute [laughs] since we, uh, had the Gospel of John. But the day after tomorrow, we are in the Gospel of Mark. So good. We're also, as I said, 1 Kings 10, Ecclesiastes 8 and 9. We're praying
