Summary:

In this theologically rich episode, hosts Jordan Biere, Jason Kidd, and Annie Grandell are joined by NET Ministries Chaplain Fr. Chad VanHoose to lay a strong foundation for understanding the sacrament of Confirmation—and, equally important, clarifying what it isn’t.

Too often, Confirmation is surrounded by confusion and cultural baggage, described as a “sacrament in search of a theology.” But in truth, there is a deep and compelling theology behind it—one that has the power to transform hearts and communities.

Notable Quotes:

• “A sacrament is the touch of Jesus.” - St. Augustine (6:40)

• “In healthy parishes that confirm and send forth disciples, mentorship is at the center.” -Fr. Chad (36:54)
