In all honesty, it's much easier to pray "Thy will be done" than to put it into practice. As we examine the Mass readings from the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, we'll be reminded of the importance of following God's will. John the Baptist did it, Jesus did it and you can too. Tune in and find out how!

Karlo accepts challenges from Protestant callers (and Catholics) on Catholic beliefs that seem to contradict the Bible.

Questions Covered:

06:30 - I have a Protestant friend who doesn’t believe there is a scriptural basis for celibacy in the priesthood. How can I respond to this? 

15:55 - Protestants ask me why Jesus would give us his real Body and Blood. How can I answer this? 

22:00 - As a Protestant, I understand blessings to be gifts from God. What is the Catholic understanding of blessing? Are blessings the same as sacramentals?  

29:38 – I am a Baptist interested in converting to Catholicism. How can Catholics view Mary as perfect and a way to Christ? Where is the evidence for this? 

40:47 - If Jesus is fully bodily in heaven, what are Catholics worshipping in adoration? 

44:45 - A non-Catholic asked me, how can Jesus be both human and divine? They said it is a logical fallacy.  

49:43 - How can I respond to my Protestant brother who says that Jesus’ blood is enough, so I shouldn’t have Mass said for my deceased mother?
