But above all I commend to Thee the priests dearest to me; the priest who baptized me; the priests who absolved me from my sins; the priests at whose Masses I assisted, and who gave me Thy Body and Blood in Holy Communion; the priests who taught and instructed me, or helped and encouraged me; all the priests to whom I am indebted in any other way, particularly N. O Jesus, keep them all close to Thy Heart, and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen. ***** Cincinnati Right to Life is online at cincinnatirighttolife.org.

Episode 150: 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C In today's episode, our main focus will be on the second reading for this upcoming 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, taken from 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. There are couple of details that we will focus one. One relates to the topic of Apostolic Succession. The other relates to Sacred Tradition. The Gospel reading, taken from Luke 17:5-10, does provide us a detail worthy reflecting on, but it is not apologetical in nature even though it can help us in our apologetics ministry. Hey everyone, Welcome to The Sunday Catholic Word, a podcast where we reflect on the upcoming Sunday Mass readings and pick out the details that are relevant for explaining and defending our Catholic faith. I'm Dr. Karlo Broussard, staff apologist and speaker for Catholic Answers, and the host for this podcast. In today's episode, our main focus will be on the second reading for this upcoming 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, taken from 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. There are couple of details that we will focus one. One relates to the topic of Apostolic Succession. The other relates to Sacred Tradition. The Gospel reading, taken from Luke 17:5-10, does provide us a detail worthy reflecting on, but it is not apologetical in nature even though it can help us in our apologetics ministry. Here’s the second reading, 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. Paul writes, Beloved: I remind you, to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control. So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord, nor of me, a prisoner for his sake; but bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God. Take as your norm the sound words that you heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. Guard this rich trust with the help of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us. The first detail that I want to highlight is Paul's statement, “the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands.” There's a considerable amount of debate surrounding this passage as it relates to Apostolic Succession. And that's what I'd like to focus on. For some Catholics, this passage is clear-cut evidence for Apostolic Succession—the idea that the apostles ordained others to succeed them in the apostolic ministry. Paul speaks of a “gift” given to Timothy, which would seem to be a reference to the indelible mark that's given in priestly ordination. Paul also says that this gift was given through “the imposition of hands,” which would also fit with the Catholic understanding of priestly ordination. So what should we make of this interpretation? Well, let's first take the appeal to the “gift.” I don't think this refers specifically to the character or mark that's given in priestly ordination. The reason is that such a character, in the words of R. J. Foster in A Catholic Commentary on Holy Scripture, “would have no need of being revived and is incapable of diminution or decline” (pg. 1148). Rather, it seems to be a reference to what theologians call “the grace of a calling,” actual graces that a minister has access to for the sake of fulfilling the duties that the office requires. Foster argues this is evidenced by Paul adding, “For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.” Now, this doesn't mean this is not a reference to priestly ordination, since “the grace of a calling” comes with the priestly ordination. And that it is a reference to Timothy's priestly ordination is strongly supported by this “gift” being given through the “imposition of hands.” We have to be careful, however, with our appeal to the imposition of hands. The “laying on of hands” has multiple meanings in the Bible. Curtis Mitch and Scott Hahn give a nice list in their Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: It's a gesture used to perform healings (Mark 16:18), confer bles

“Is Faith a Gift or a Choice?” This episode explores the intersection of faith and popular culture, while also addressing questions about the power of relics in 2 Kings 13:21, the implications of AI-generated art, and the complexities of faith as a gift. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on these diverse topics. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:20 – Is Billy Batson sinning by using the powers of Hercules, Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, and Mercury? 06:43 – Do you think 2 Kings 13:21 could be used as proof for the power of relics? 10:00 – In a past AMA, you said that if someone were assimilated by the Borg, the state of their soul adjacent to confession would remain unchanged. If someone were assimilated, could they conceivably receive the anointing of the sick? 15:57 – Can AI generated images be considered art? 21:44 – If faith is a gift, how can someone be culpable for not having faith? 29:06 – As it pertains to the dating of the Gospel of John, I think there’s good internal evidence that it’s written before 70 AD, but I’ve heard people say that Irenaeus teaches that it’s dated in the 90-95 AD range. Is there any perspective out there that can hold that both Irenaeus is correct, and a pre-70 AD Gospel of John is correct? (For example, are people just misreading Irenaeus to make it seem like he’s saying it’s in the 90s but in reality he might not even be saying that?) 37:53 – Why is Catholicism a better option than Oriental Orthodoxy? 45:55 – As a Protestant converting to Catholicism, what duty does one have to inform family, friends, and former pastors/church members of one's conversion to Catholicism? How should conversation be done? Any advice? Thanks! 52:42 – Has Catholic Answers thought of making a list of the De Fide statement found in Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma? I know this is a resource used by Catholic Answers and it would be great to have a bullet point list

Questions Covered: 02:02 – Is time itself a created substance? Can there be change or motion before there ever was time? 05:30 – what is redemptive suffering? 13:23 – Why did Christ allow himself to be baptized if he was without sin? 17:55 – What's a biblical defense of souls living in heaven? 21:53 – How do know the difference between Gods voice and your own? 24:45 – John 20:32 Are there sins that were retained by the disciples? 33:42 – If someone is diagnosed with terminal cancer, is it morally ok to deny treatment? 41:20 – Jewish boys at the age of 12 have bar mitzvah. Is there a connection between this and Jesus being found in the temple at 12? 43:47 – What doesn't God only make the people who will choose heaven? 50:11 – How would you recommend I bring up the permanence of marriage to a large protestant group?

Is this possible 21:29 – How do you get closer to God? 29:46 – The Holy Spirit proceeding from the Father and Son implies motion and change. If they are in eternity, how can there be movement and change? 34:43 – How does “begets” not mean “cause” when we say that the Father begets the son? 40:40 – What is the latest book you've written? 45:02 – Explain the difference between grace and mercy? 47:42 – How do we talk to our protestant brothers and sister about the topics where we disagree? 50:14 – Why do we pray the Apostles Creed when we pray rosary? What's the difference between the Nicene and Apostles creed?

Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse and Father Paul Sullins unpack the myths and political narratives surrounding “conversion therapy,” sharing insights from their amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court. They challenge the American Psychological Association's portrayal of sexual orientation change efforts, expose the lack of rigorous evidence behind mainstream claims, and highlight how research on contributing factors—like childhood trauma—has been sidelined. The conversation also examines historical shifts in psychiatric policy, the suppression of certain kinds of research, and key studies showing that ethical, client-led therapy can yield psychological benefits without the coercive practices often cited by opponents.

In this part of The Dr. J Show interview with counselor and Catholic missionary Bryan Shen, he discusses the hidden emotional roots of same-sex attraction, especially within religious communities. Shen explains how trauma, perfectionism, and family dysfunction can create deep psychological wounds that manifest as identity confusion. He challenges Western narratives that promote affirmation without understanding and stresses the urgent need for proper education and pastoral care, particularly for seminarians and clergy. With real-life examples from his work across Asia, Shen exposes the dangers of untrained interventions, the spiritual costs of emotional repression, and the healing power of truth, humility, and faith.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Catholic Answers author, apologist, and columnist John Clark to talk about the stigmata – the incredible, miraculous wounds of Christ as experienced by some of the most profound saints down through history. And, the incredible evangelical power that the stigmata – and stigmatists – have today! We dig into the lives of great saints like Padre Pio, St. Francis of Assisi, and more and discuss not only the profound properties of their miracles and miraculous lives but their devotion to the Eucharist, to the Church, and what makes them an unshakable witness to the Catholic faith – in our dialogue with our non-Catholic Christian brothers and sisters. Plus, we talk about John's own dad's fascinating conversion story – connected to the stigmatists! For more from John check out his book God's Wounds from Catholic Answers Press and use the coupon code WOUNDED to receive 25% off! Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.
