#12262 Mortal Sin, Confession, Miracles, Fairies, and the Role of the Cantor at Mass - Joe Heschmeyer
In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, listeners ask thoughtful and wide-ranging questions on Catholic doctrine and spirituality. Topics include whether a cantor’s lifestyle affects the Mass, how to discern mystical experiences from coincidences, and the potential impact of Ecumenical Councils on doctrine and liturgy. Other questions touch on miracles in non-Catholic churches, the meaning of Matthew 11:27, the history of the Sacrament of Confession, and how to address disruptive chatter before Mass. The show also delves into more unusual inquiries, such as whether the Church has any stance on fairies, and how to understand the eternal consequences of dying in mortal sin.
