The Bible In A Year: The Most Downloaded Religious Podcast

A 47-year-old priest, Mike Schmitz, responsible for youth ministry in the diocese of Duluh in Minnesota, has been quite popular on the Internet for some years. His name, launched on Google, correspond to link pages, including a Wikipedia entry, while his videos, on the YouTube channel of the publisher Ascension, count tens of thousands of views (with a peak of 2 million, in 2017); has a Twitter profile and one on Instagram. But since last January his digital fame has made a high jump: with the daily podcast of 20-25 minutes “The Bible in a Year” (The Bible in a year), published equally by “Ascension” (  bit.ly/3Hg1Mqq ), has steadily conquered the first place in the ranking of the most downloaded religious-spiritual podcasts, with 460 thousand daily downloads: says the National Catholic Register. Thanks to the undoubted communicative skills of Don Schmitz, but also to the reading plan “Great Adventure Bible Studies”, developed by Jeff Cavins (another author of “Ascension”), which allows you to cover the entire Bible in a year.
