Summary

  • William - What's a good resource to teach my children basic apologetics?
  • Leslie - I usually pray in silence. Can angels and those in heaven hear my prayers?
  • Eileen - What is the difference between the Assumption of Mary and the Dormition of Mary?
  • Maria - Altar serving--I'm an 18 year old woman serving. Should I still serve at mass?
  • Albert - Our Lord died at the 9th hour (3 pm) - I thought it was a three hour crucifixion, does it say anywhere that it started at noon? Or when did it start?
  • Norman - I was raised Catholic, now attend Protestant church, but I see the divisions in their theology.  I see what Cordileone is doing and I totally agree with him... but there are other priests that WILL give Pelosi Communion... so there's division in the Catholic Church, too... what are we to do? (House divided will fall)
  • Phil - Just became Catholic in March - was most amazing day of my life - curious about guardian angels and how we should be communicating with them and utilizing them
  • David - Why the Roman Catholic Church puts Mary on a pedestal above Jesus and has a beef with what Patrick said to the woman about angels
  • Mary - Marriage of a Catholic marrying outside the Church. Someone in my family is doing this...how should we respond to the invitation?

let's go to william in miramar flor Florida. Hello, William.

0:41.1

Hello, Patrick. Good morning. Thank you for taking my phone call. You're welcome.

0:48.6

My question is, can you recommend a resource that can help me give my children like a basic foundation and apologetics. I want to teach them not only what the Catholic faith is, but why we believe what we believe.

0:55.8

Yeah, there's a lot of good resources. So how old are the kids, first of all?

1:01.3

Well, the youngest is four. The oldest is 11. And I'm kind of really zeroing in on my eight-year-old and an 11-year-old.

1:07.2

And the reason I asked this is I just met a men's conference, and I met some men there who said that, you know, I sent all our children went to Catholic school from K through 12th, and then they went off to college, and now they've all left their faith. And my concern is that my children may go to a state university one day. Right now they're on Catholic school, but they go to State University, and then these professors

1:28.1

just destroy their Catholic faith within a semester or two.

1:31.9

Yeah, that's a common tale.

1:33.9

A lot of people will attest to that.

1:35.3

So here's what I'd recommend.

1:36.5

Start the kids off with a couple things.

1:43.7

Edition that's got all the illustrations, a lot of retro Baltimore Catechism, and you want the St. Joseph edition that's got all the

1:44.9

illustrations, a lot of retro illustrations from like the 1950s. It's fully updated, and it's very

1:50.9

solid. It's a question and answer format, and that will help give them a base. They need a theological

1:56.5

base to understand what it is that they believe. You know, what does Jesus teach? What does the

2:02.3

church teach? They really need to know those basic details, and then they'll be in a better

2:07.3

position to defend them. You don't want to do it the other way around. You don't want to be

2:11.2

teaching them how to defend something that they don't understand, right? So start with that.
