The Understanding the Scriptures Podcast is provided at no cost to anyone and everyone who wishes to participate anywhere in the world, whether they are financially well off or poor. While some apostolates and ministries would charge a significant amount for similar content, we have kept this podcast absolutely free so that it may reach as many souls as possible.
However, we do incur expenses in the realm of website design, server space, bandwidth, advertising and other means to distribute and promote this unique proclamation of God’s Word.
In Galatians 6:6, St. Paul wrote, “Let him who is taught the word share all good things with him who teaches.” Would you please take a moment to place $5, $10, $20, or more in our digital offertory collection basket?
