Have questions about the Catechism? We have answers!

💬 Today, Dr. Sollom will be answering the following questions:

1. Does God the Father have a body like Jesus? Or is he pure spirit like the Holy Spirit? If the Trinity have the same nature, does everything that happens to Jesus also happen to God the Father and Holy Spirit ?


2. Day 288 left me feeling like the decisions of my adult children are the result of my catastrophic failure in my parental duties to create a proper Catholic home for them. What advice would give to discouraged parents whose adult children have fallen away from the Faith?


3. Why was paragraph 2267 of Catechism changed regarding the death penalty ? Did the Church change what we’re supposed to believe and how we’re supposed to act (faith and morals)?


4. How do I talk to my friends about abortion when they feel that I’m pushing my religion on them ?
