Summary

In this season of Lent, I tend to get questions regarding Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. Today, I'll be discussing some very important distinctions between the two and finally, answering the question, can a practicing Catholic be "born again?" I squeezed in one more question on suffering and the will of God. Remember, if you have accepted Christ as your Savior, you have the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit. You can, and should, open the Bible for yourself. God wants to speak to you! SHOW NOTES

are sending me some wonderful questions. I love the discussion. You've heard me say many times

1:00.0

here at the show that I believe we need to be having and engaging in thoughtful conversations

1:07.4

about the issues of our day, whether they're political, whether they're talking about issues of our

1:35.2

I just think it's amazing to me just the turn of events that are happening in the culture right now.

1:40.7

And I think the conversations that we're having around these important events are very good for
