Everyone who loves the Bible should take this course.
Fr. Pat Mullen has a very conversational delivery style that is especially good for listening to his course.

Everyone who loves the Bible should take this course.

Fr. Mullen’s course was very interesting

Great Aswers to Difficult Questions
Fr Mullen has a lively voice and delivery that keeps your interest. His explanations of the cultural backgrounds of attitudes toward women and slavery are very helpful and convincing. I appreciate how he clears Mary Magdalene’s reputation. Anyone who has questions about difficult passages in the Bible should listen to these lectures to be enlightened.

A lively speaker
Father Pat is a lively speaker. He is not long winded. Some of the other courses I’ve purchased had dull speakers. The speaker on a CD has to be lively to keep our attention.
