Podcast Description
THE171 - It may look like a tough new Theology class, but you won't have to take any tests here. The Catechism of the Catholic Church paragraph 171 says that our Church "from generation to generation hands on the apostles' confession of faith," and that she "teaches us the language of faith in order to introduce us to the understanding and the life of faith." In this bi-weekly podcast, we answer your faith questions (and the ones you're afraid to ask) in two minutes - the time it takes to sit at a stoplight. Then we break it open with discussion between our host, a priest, and a variety of special guests.
