Father Matthew Spencer sits in for Patrick Madrid and engages with callers on important theological topics. The episode delves into the concept of papal infallibility, the controversy surrounding the traditional Latin Mass, and how to counter the Protestant idea of the Rapture. The discussion also explores the question of why an adult should wait to be baptized in the Catholic Church.

- Richard - If you are struggling with a sin and keep repeating it, are your confessions valid still? (20:48)

- John - My daughter is becoming protestant, and won't be baptizing my granddaughter. Should I suggest they baptize the child?
