Catholics and many other liturgically-oriented Christian traditions use a lectionary model, following a three-year cycle of readings, which means the whole Church is reading the same Scriptures together every Sunday throughout the year.
For those Christians who come from a background where the pastor picks out the readings each week, this can be a bit of an adjustment!
Matt Swaim talks to Ken Ogorek, co-author of the Breaking the Bread series, about what the lectionary is, how it works, and the benefits of reading the Scriptures together as a Church throughout the year.

More on Breaking the Bread, a lectionary devotional by Ken Ogorek and Scott Hahn, can be found through the St. Paul Center.
