How to Understand the Entire Bible Story... in 10 Minutes

I sat next to a young man on a flight from New York to Denver who had just got a divorce from his husband. He was reeling with his emotions. He opened up to me about how devastated he was. As we got to talking he shared that he was Catholic and that his father who was also Catholic and had turned his back on the church was in hospice. I asked the young man if a priest had been called and he said no. We talked for a while and then he grew quiet. He then leaned over and looked into me eyes and said he had been praying for a sign. I told him that God loves him more than he could ever know. As we were departing from the plane, I gave him a hug and told him I would pray for him and God bless. You just never know when an opportunity to share God's love will present itself.

This wretched world is slightly better with Father Mike in it.

Anyone else feel a strong wave of people finding their way back to Jesus recently? I’ve just strongly felt the presence of the Holy Spirit recently in my life and it’s given me great Hope.

Schmitz Notes… that’s my vote.

Dear Fr Mike, I've just been to confession after many years. Your videos have helped me so much , answering questions that I didnt know needed answering. Thank you ❤

Forget all the stress, politics, drama, demands of everyday life. Don't question whether you're "worthy" of salvation but know that someone loves you unconditionally. And all he asks in return is to Follow him and trust in him. Everything else will take care of itself. 🙏

The 10 Commandments, the Apostles Creed, Our Father, Hail Mary. In ten minutes, these would be a good start. No one can read the Bible in 10 minutes, but Father Mike can sure explain it well.

So, this Friday I am meeting my mom. I am going to tell her how God loves her and sees her. She is an atheist. Also she has very low self-esteem and everything which comes with it. She likes craft work and makes very unique flowers from all sorts of materials. In a prayer I just got a new perspective of her work, which is: those flowers represent her and how God sees her. So I am going to ask her to explain her flowers, I plan to add my views (like pretty, detailed, etc.). Also I invited my brother (left the faith) as well so I will ask him about those flowers and I will make my mom to write it down on a piece of paper. Then I am going to face her: that is how God sees her. And as she is able to form those flowers from different materials she can form her own thoughts and feelings as well to match to those attributes we all gathered about her (flowers). Then I will let her know that no-one is perfect except God, but we can try our best at least. ❤ I am so thankful for God to lead me to this path and looking forward to this visit at my mom's! ❤ God bless you Fr. Mike and AP team for what you do for our faith!

Thank you Fr. Mike

Love and Hope.

Perfect timing of this video. Praise God! ❣️🙏

Thank you very much Father Schmitz! God speaks through you and this was the message I needed to hear! For a while I have been away from the Catholic Church but something has been stirring in my heart lately. Thank you!

They should make this into an animated series! Great video!

Thank you Father!

Fr Mike I saw the other video. I really liked it. I truly hope you do other sessions

I've been listening to the bible in a year and absolutely love it so helpful to truly understand the bible. 🙏💜 Thank you

💐✝️🛐💯 Good Evening Father Mike

I sat down with a friend one day and told her about the Nicene Creed . I prayed to the Holy Spirit for Him to take me and share the Story through me. 🙏 I felt like the Holy Spirit did. Thank You Holy Spirit ❤

Thanks!

If anyone can cover the bible in 10 minutes, its Father Mike
