    Day 324: The Ninth Commandment (2024)

Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 2514-2519. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Excellent

A fabulous way to listen to the Catechism with amazing commentary throughout. First few days are slow, need to stick with it. Episodes shorter than Bible in a year, so less of a commitment
