Unapologetically Catholic

This week I discuss the rosary! What it is and is not, why we Catholics pray the rosary and what the goal of praying the rosary is. The rosary is not a "Catholics only" prayer tool but should be used by all christians and I think you'll see why after this episode!

This episode we will talk about, what I think, are two major reasons why someone should convert from Protestantism to Catholicism. There are multiple reasons to become Catholic but I think these two are the biggest reasons why.

This week we are going to go over what a sacrament is, what a sacramental is. We will will talk about how they are different, similar and  how they complement each other. They are both gifts given to us by Jesus himself and the Church and we should take part in both often!

This week's episode is a little different from the others. We talk about Ash Wednesday, why we do the ashes, why fast and a few other things surrounding Lent. Lent is difficult but very well worth it. We are on a journey to become more like Christ and be more closely unified with the Father for his glory!

Growing up Protestant I would often hear that Catholics prayed to the saints and thought that meant they were elevating Mary and the saints to the same level as God. I thought they were committing necromancy which the Bible clearly says is wrong. When I started studying Catholicism I quickly learned the truth about what was happening. Praying to the saints is something ALL christians should be doing!

This week we talk about confession. I LOVE confession and I know that sounds a little bit crazy but when you properly whats going on in confession, it's a beautiful sacrament that God gives us thru the ministry of the Church. We go over what the Church says about confession and see how Jesus instituted this sacrament in scripture.

This week we are talking about idolatry. I believed when I was Protestant that Catholics worshiped statues and pictures and were a little bit superstitious when it came to wearing necklaces and things. We definitely are not idolaters and there is absolutely a place for statues, crucifixes and paintings of saints, angels, Mary and Jesus!
