Leave a Review Ascension | Bible & Catechism
Excellent overall, but could be even better
I love this app overall. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is for two reasons. The first is: the Catholic Faith, not to mention has a language of its own. There are words you come across in the Bible and the Catechism that you simply do not encounter very often in everyday reading. It would be great if there were a way to look those words up without having to leave the app. Seems like a minor inconvenience, but for me, it’s more of a major one. The second reason is that I really wish this app included a section for prayer. It really would make it much more of a “one stop shop” and another way for the app to be even more of a convenience to users.Show lessGreat App
I’ve been using this for about a year or two, and it makes the Bible and Catechism so easy to access. I am a little sad that certain features are payed features when they used to be free. Unlike for some people, that doesn’t ruin the app for me. It would be nice to have one or two free Bible studies so people can see what it’s like, but it’s not a huge deal. One thing I think would be great to add is a Bible reading plan page. It would be a page where it would have the Bible in a Year plan and maybe a few more like the four Gospels. It would also be cool if you had the ability to create your own reading plans on the app. It’s just an idea that I thought would be nice to have.Show lessCannot say enough
Father Mike has the most eloquent, respectful and most appropriate words in using examples and comments to reflect either the BIY or CIY podcast daily sessions. Man oh man, he never fails to impress me with his understanding of us, God’s people. I have learned so much and continue to learn. I have finished BIY and am currently doing CIY. I believe it is best to do the both and in this order. His humor is such an added bonus. I laugh a lot. Having a much better understanding of the Old Testament, the prophets and all of the books in the Bible, helps me better understand and appreciate Mass as well as understanding how deeply God loves us. We hear the words that God loves us, but the understanding deepens tremendously when you read/listen to Fr. Mike going through the Bible and the Catechism. Highly recommend every person on Earth to these podcast series. Thank you Fr. Mike and to you all at Ascension Press. God Bless you all!Show less
