Remember Scott Hahn’s and Jeff Cavin’s hosted program at EWTN on Salvation History?  That was shown more than ten years ago and is still periodically shown on the EWTN channel.  The program was so useful to a lot of people that a few years ago, it was made available through the web via Real Player audio.  Quite recently someone has made it available in MP3 format that one can play through WinAMP or with Windows Media Player with the proper MPEG-1 codec.  The sound quality is excellent, and would be useful for those who would like to have copies of those files to be played over and over again.

There are 13 MP3 files that compose the program, averaging to about 6MB each.  These cover salvation history from Genesis to the Catholic Church.  The first file OFP01.mp3 is important because it is there that Hahn and Cavins, both former non-Catholic pastors and converts to the Catholic Church, explain how they got back to the Catholic Church through the Scriptures.  It is also in this file where Hahn explains four theological principles that structure the whole of Salvation History:

• God as Father
• Salvation as Sonship
• Covenant as the Underlying Structure of God’s Plan of Salvation
• The Catholic Church as the Family of God

In the rest of the audio files, these four principles will become a sort of refrain that the speakers will be referring back to in each stage of salvation history as they retell it from the pages of Scriptures. Listen to Our Father's Plan here.
