Father Simon Says
Jas 1:1-11 * Father talks about the book, The Rise of Christianity and the early Jews that accepted Jesus Mk 8:11-13 * Father tells a story of a priest who had problems with faith Letters: * What is the role of fear in the Bible? * Did Adam and Eve have children before the fall? * At a particular mass, the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick was offered to many at the parish--was that OK? Word of the Day: More Corinthian commentary! Callers: * Was leprosy, just a name meaning someone was contagious with something? * Could you explain who St. Valentine is and when did St. Valentine's Day turn to Valentine's Day? * When we know someone is suffering, and we commiserate w/them, do we suffer with them and that brings us closer to Christ? * Which word did Jesus actually use in John 4 with the Samaritan? * Is a confession valid if the priest and penitent speak different languages?
