Open Forum for Non-Catholics

From those who oppose the Catholic Church to those who are thinking about entering, in this show, we take a break from talking with Catholics while Patrick Madrid answers questions about the Faith from non-Catholics.

Questions Covered:

• 04:07 - Why don’t Catholics talk about their faith?
• 17:41 - We are learning about the Catholic Church in RCIA rather than the life of Christ. I don’t understand this, and why don’t we have the option to go to Confession earlier in order to have the grace to continue the journey?
• 32:40 - Why do Catholics believe so strongly against abortion? Can you give me some scriptural references?
• 47:05 - How can I respond to questions within my family about the Protestant view of “once saved always saved”? I am the only one in RCIA.
