Patrick answers listener questions about if Mary was sinless, what is the best way to interpret scripture, and how can I discern the difference between human emotions with that of authentic encounters with God

• Was Mary sinless?
• Gina - Do you have book recommendations for my son about the Catholic Church and History? He is a senior in High school. Patrick recommends “The Founding of Christendom: A History of Christendom” by Warren Carroll
• Mike - How do I best interpret scripture? Should I only use the scripture or are other sources needed to interpret the word of God?
• Joseph – How do I discern the difference between emotions versus authentic encounters with God?
• Charles - What do you think about buying out of print Catholic books from a schismatic group?
• Andrea - I heard priests are getting discouraged with their vocation. They bring us the Eucharist, so how can we help our priest feel less discouraged?
