What happened to Catholic belief?
When Catholics can casually declare that someone who never received the Sacraments and never entered the Church is certainly in heaven, it’s worth asking whether the Faith we inherited is being replaced by something else entirely.
And now Pope Leo is warning Catholics not to “retreat into our own convictions and religious certainties.”
But what if “religious certainty” is exactly what Catholics desperately need?
Jesus said He is the way, the truth and the life. He established a Church. He commanded us to keep His commandments. Those are religious certainties!
And the Pope would have us move beyond that…
Michael Matt looks past the Dolly Parton headlines to the quiet but deadly crisis of faith, as evidenced by Catholic priests and prelates trotting out Universal Salvationism and celebrating a lack of conviction.
The result? Catholics suddenly find themselves members of a Church of “Religious Uncertainty”.
But before the show ends, Michael introduces someone who puts all of these arguments into perspective: little Lucy, his granddaughter.
Her life has taught her family something the sophisticated world desperately needs to remember about suffering, selflessness, the sacredness of human life and the face of Jesus.
Watch to the end. And please pray for Lucy.
