The sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick has the power to heal you physically and spiritually. It also has the power to strengthen your resolve to unite your sufferings with Christ Jesus. Will you experience miraculous healing or intimate suffering? Whatever is most conducive to your salvation and that of others is the route God will allow you to endure. Either way this sacrament aids us in our pursuit of an intimate friendship with God. 

Hell. Not an easy thing to talk about. How can an all-good, all-loving God "send" people to a place of eternal torment? What is the role of human free will and God's grace? What about predestination? These are some of the questions Pat and Eric discuss with Catholic Answers Apologist, Karlo Broussard. 

Articles by Dr. Ed Feser mentioned by Karlo:

In certain conversations it is good to present strong arguments for your beliefs. Other times it is even better to share your love, joy, and personal excitement for what you believe. In this episode, Pat and I talk about why we love being Catholic. 

The Eucharist is Jesus Christ under the appearance of bread and wine. God with us is still with us!
