What are Holy Orders, and why does the Church ordain clergy through the laying on of hands? In this episode, we dig deeper into the scriptural foundation and tradition behind the roles of bishops, priests, and deacons. We discuss apostolic authority, the qualifications for those called to pastoral ministry, and the comfort found in the ordered structure of the Church. This episode is especially helpful for those from non-Catholic or evangelical backgrounds seeking to understand this often-misunderstood practice.
