Listeners call in to ask Fr. Bochanski pastoral questions.

Questions Covered:

07:35 – What does Matthew 7:6 (““Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine”) mean?

21:22 – Even if Adam and Eve hadn’t sinned, wouldn’t someone have done it eventually? 

28:44 – I have mobility problems that have made it difficult for me to attend church. Does that affect my status as a Catholic? 

32:22 – What happens if a priest stops believing in God? 

39:25 – I just went back to confession for the first time in several years. If I don’t remember all my sins, am I still in a state of grace? Or do I have to go back and confess them all? 

41:50 – Is the “sign of Jonah” that Jesus mentions in Mt 12:38-42 only a reference to the resurrection, or is it also a sign of the conversion of the gentiles? 

44:12 – My daughter has recently come out as gay. She has been dating a girl seriously. I am really having difficulty with it. What can I do? 

48:48 – Is it okay for me to attend my sister’s same-sex wedding? Is it immoral to go?
