Questions Covered:
03:32 – Do we know anything about the families of Apostles other than Peter, who had a mother-in-law? Which ones were married, who had children, etc.? 
07:19 – I’m curious about John 10:18 where Jesus talks about having the power to lay down his life and take it up again. Does this mean he could have chosen to die right then, or could it suggest that he had the option to remain on the cross longer before choosing to die? 
11:36 – What sacraments can angels administer? I’ve heard stories of angels administering holy communion and even heard once of an angel hearing confession. And it made me wonder if there has been any other sacraments they’ve been known to administer? 
15:30 – Is experiencing deja vu the intersection of your current timeline with another? 
20:52 – What’s the best answer that I can give my dad about why people who are members Opus Dei scourge themselves as a form of penance? He seems to think it’s not biblical. 
29:19 – Was it when Judas received the sacrament of the Eucharist that the devil entered into his soul due to the state it was in? 
33:46 – Would conjoined twins be able to be married in the Church? 
40:24 – Someone told me that if you add regular water to a small bit of holy water the blessing is transferred and the holy water bottle can be filled in this way as long as you don’t let it run out. Is this true? 
43:41 – How would you respond to someone who says that they’re doing just fine without God and they see no reason to acknowledge Him or follow Him? 
47:12 – Could you go over the meaning of “Transubstantiation” and what to say and not say in the Sacrament of Reconciliation? If you like I can explain further.  
 52:41 – Wouldn’t these verses from Mark 7 demonstrate that if Mary had other children, Jesus would not have given her to John to care for?
