Karlo Broussard is here to help navigate aspects of Catholicism that can be more challenging to understand and accept.

Questions Covered:

 

12:23 - One thing that troubles me is when the hierarchy gets political. Is this where the Church belongs? Why do they take political positions? 

20:44 - Why is the Catholic Church built on Scripture, Tradition and the Magisterium? 

32:31- I don’t understand Catholicism because there is the Father in heaven, but the Holy Spirit was the one who overshadowed Mary. It seems to me like the Holy Spirit is the Father. How can I better understand this? 

40:56 - I don’t understand papal infallibility.  

48:15 - I don’t understand why the Catholic Church doesn’t have female Catholic priests.

The Bible begins and ends with marriage. “Scripture speaks throughout of marriage and its ‘mystery,’ its institution and the meaning God has given it, its origin and its end, its various realizations throughout the history of salvation, the difficulties arising from sin, and its renewal ‘in the Lord’ in the New Covenant of Christ and the Church. ‘From a valid marriage arises a bond between the spouses which by its very nature is perpetual and exclusive; furthermore, in a Christian marriage the spouses are strengthened and, as it were, consecrated for the duties and the dignity of their state by a special sacrament'” (CCC 1602, 1638).

Today, I reflect upon a theme I saw in the Sunday’s readings from Pentecost. We are called to be one in Christ. That reality of oneness is realized through the work of the Holy Spirit. I get into that topic a bit in the episode today.
