How to Get Through the Bible in an Hour!

Bible in an Hour- This is the hidden gem on this site, and it is an absolute travesty that there is not a video component. I used this for a class on Salvation History and tied it up with the slides (under outline). It was a huge hit. His accompanying stick figure salvation history book is also excellent, but I think this lecture should be a part of every OCIA class. It really is incredible. I know Dr. Bergsma has a lot going on, and I pray for him. Once he has a chance, I really encourage him to rerecord a really strong video presentation of this lecture with the Catholic productions team and promote on social media. The free version you can find online has terrible audio.

So far so good in that this MP3 offering consists of only one audio file rather than a zipfile package of many files which are frustrating to manage during listening. Unfortunately, with this particular audio file, as with all Catholic Production audio files, one cannot interrupt listening and pick up at the same or nearly the same point. This presents physical management challenges. The excellent content of Catholic Production audio offerings are best listened to in one "take". For this reason, I frequently seek the titlles listed among Catholic Production's offerings among Audible titles. There I have found a number of Dr. Pitre's books and some of Dr. Bergsma's work. As Audible downloads, these works are far easier to download, listen to in segments, and easier to manage. (Of course, one must have an Audible subscription in order to enjoy those advantages)

I have heard Dr Bergsma’s “Hour” several times and have passed it around. Bought this one for my niece.

Dr. Bergsma does a great job of breaking down covenant history through the Bible, culminating in the Covenant of covenants, the Eucharist. But, I can only give 4 stars simply for the fact the PowerPoint, as I seen it on YouTube, which made me want to buy it. should have been included with the excerpt. It makes it much more fun to follow along. It will be a great thing to show students preparing for Confirmation or RCIA.

Dr. Bergsma highlights the covenants and shines guiding light through the entire Scriptures. Let this short listen jump start your bible study plans. Great place to begin.
