    I was raised Catholic. Left church when I started attending the Baptist church when dating my husband at 20yo. I learned so much from this video. I actually watched it twice. This ought to be shared with every child in the Catholic faith. A simpler version before First Communion. And this before Confirmation. Wouldn’t hurt for every adult to view every 5 years! I watched a video sometime in the last year when it popped up on CZcams. I ended up returning to watch more. I made the decision to return to the Catholic Church. I’m enjoying all of the Explaining the Faith series. Watch as often as I can. Thank you so much! God bless you all especially Father Chris!

    Father Chris, I am a member of the Divine Mercy family, but I have always been reluctant to ask you for anything. I watch your shows all the time and gain a great deal of knowledge and understanding of our faith even more. Today I come to you with a great problem. I sincerely need you to pray that the animal hospital my daughter runs, is in desperate need of surgeons. Right now there is only one and he seems to having a mental breakdown. I told her that I will pray for her and I am positive that Jesus will always hear my prayers. I know that your prayers are very powerful as well. I would also beg of you to please pray for my daughter who has to undergo surgery on the 16 th. of this month. Please pray that the results of her surgery come back negative. I have received your flyer, so I will write my check and have someone put it in the mail downstairs since I am in a wheelchair and do not leave my apartment, since my right arm does not work too well ever since I fell and broke my shoulder last November. I am seventy five years old and only 90 lbs. so it’s only Jesus , and I who work together and get things done whatever needs to be done. My faith is strong, thanks be to God. God bless you father for all your excellent work.

    Fr. Alar I was raised Catholic, married Catholic and had my kids baptized..I left the catholic church because I wasn't happy with the way the church handled a lot of things that put me off. I looked around for another religion that would give me peace. Then I found the Christian church. My daughter was a member, but I believed in the Blessed Mother and didn't want to ignore her. I was told not to pray to her because she was human and she didn't have any thing to do with Jesus. Now I try to believe in both. Long story short!!! I can't get out to go to church or get communion. I have no one to get me there. I have the brown scapular and Marys medal. I believe in God and pray all the time. Thanks for reading this and I hope God understands me. God bless you.

Problem is I watched 3 yesterday 😅. It was either explaining the faith what is hell like and how to avoid it or it was explaining the faith what happens at death please be prepared. Both were very interesting and I'm sure you'll enjoy both.

      The catholic church is the Christian church established by Christ. Heretical cults derived from Martin Luther protestant pride are separating you from Christ. You should call your local parish so you can make a good confession and receive the eucharist.

    I’m one of the facilitators of the RCIA ( rite of Christian Initiation for adults)process at our parish . The materials we use does a step by step explanation including some biblical references but this video far surpasses it, and so it will be a wonderful resource for our information and transformation
    Thank you

    Awesome tour de force of chatechism. Give me a 30 minute version of this and I'll ask my kids to watch it. Then our church will be slight less small and slightly less holy.
