From Catholic to Baptist to Mormon Then Catholic Again

The story of Marilou

Catholic Revert.

Language: English and Filipino.

In this episode, Jomar reads from the book 'Purgatory'—a compilation of purgatory stories written by a Jesuit. He delves into the Catholic concept of purgatory, explaining its significance as a state where the effects of sins are purified before entering heaven. The episode features the story of Saint Catherine De Ricci, who endured severe sufferings to save the soul of a prince. Jomar also discusses the theological principles behind purgatory, the nature of suffering, and the concept of plenary indulgence. This episode is aimed at both Catholics and those curious about Catholic teachings on purgatory.00:00 Introduction to Purgatory01:02 Saint Catherine De Ricci's Sacrifice04:23 Understanding Purgatory and Suffering05:39 The Concept of Purgatory in Catholicism07:54 Practical Insights on Purgatory12:34 Conclusion and Viewer Engagement

This is a sermon by Saint John Damascene from around 750 AD, celebrating the Dormition (death and assumption into heaven) of Mary, the mother of Jesus. The sermon beautifully describes Mary's death, her assumption into heaven, and explains why she deserves to be honored as the mother of God.

1. Mary's unique role as the mother of God and virgin
2. The gathering of apostles and saints at Mary's deathbed
3. Description of Mary's peaceful death and farewell
4. The procession and burial of Mary's body in Gethsemane
5. The miracle of the skeptical Jew whose hands were paralyzed
6. Mary's assumption into heaven after three days
7. The significance of Mary's tomb as a place of healing
8. The importance of virtuous living to receive Mary's grace
9. The parallel between Christ's resurrection and Mary's assumption
