When my son wants to describe a fanatic, he’ll usually end his description with: “…you know, the twitching, drooling type.”

Well, if you’re the twitching, drooling type when it comes to the Fathers, you should probably subscribe (for free) to Daily Gospel. The site’s name is self-explanatory. It gives you the Church’s Gospel of the Day, which is parceled out by the revised lectionary.

But, in the words of the Seussian Doctor: that is not all, oh no, that is not all.

The Daily Gospel also comes with a daily commentary; and the daily commentary is usually taken from the Church Fathers. Today might be a bad day to make this announcement, since today’s commentary comes from a modern council. But tomorrow’s comes from Ambrose, and it rocks.

You can read both Gospel and commentary online or subscribe and receive them by email.
