What is faith, really?
In this episode of Catechism 101, we unpack what faith actually means according to Catholic teaching. Spoiler: it's NOT blind faith.
This episode covers:
- Why "blind faith" (fideism) is something the Catholic Church actively rejects
- The story of Saint Augustine that explains exactly what faith is
- Why faith and reason aren't opposed to each other
- How to explore the mysteries of faith without switching your brain off
