    I am in the process of converting from non-practicing protestant to Catholic at age 49! I had my first confession last week. I've been in a terrible conflict with my 3 kids a d have been literally suicidal, only haven't done it bc I don't want to go to hell. I have had relief from those feelings since my confession! I told my Priest I've given my kids to Our Lady because that's all I can do for now. Thank You God, Thank You Jesus and his Blessed Mother Mary!

      My friend, we all have a fragment of the Father within. You have a fragment of the universal Father within you. That personal spirit of the Father has been within you since you were a little child. The love of the Father for you is unfathomable. This one teaches you through unconditional love. When you are feeling down. When you feel like you can’t take one more step. Remember this. You are loved by our Father at the center of all things like you are the only child in all of creation.

    I have always been terrified of confession. Part of my fear has been a lack of knowledge. After completing RCIA over 30 years ago, I thought I understood the faith. Listening to channels like this over the past three months, I’ve realized how little I knew and how that lack of knowledge made me vulnerable to fear, temptation and sin.
    How I wish I could have known these things sooner! I simply had no idea what was available, where to get it or what I was missing. It took a lifetime of avoidable mistakes to recognize the great gift information like this is. Please keep it coming. Your words are literally life-giving water to thirsty souls.

      @po18guy I very much agree! Which of why it’s fortunate that things have changed a lot in the past year. My husband and I began going to confession every 2 weeks after switching to a church with the SSPX. The change has produced tremendous healing and spiritual progress.
      I also not only lost my fear of confession, I look forward it. I think the problem was the Novus Ordo approach to confession. Because of a disability, I was unable to use the kneeler at the edge of the room, and had to confess face-to-face. I was so freaked out by it that I went the absolute minimum.
      The private confessional box at the SSPX has been a much needed change for me. Even when I’m pretty sure the priest knows who I am, I feel a greater sense of security. Maybe it’s crazy, but it works for me.

    I have watched this video several times and learn new things each time. I try to go weekly or bi-weekly. I was away from the sacrament for 10 years and I told myself I will never do that again. When I question myself and say I don’t need it or feel the priest is going to be upset with me for going too frequently I realize that is not coming from the Holy Spirit. Recently I was flying to Europe and wanted to go to confession before I left so I made the decision to make an appointment with the priest for confession. I was amazed how delighted the priest was that I made that step. It definitely changed my view on how a priest views confession. It is such a beautiful sacrament that is underused. Thank you Fr. Chris for doing these videos. It truly has been a blessing for me.

    This lecture is worth hearing over and over! I once was a supporter of your order going back at least for the previous two Father Josephs. I always loved receiving the beautiful cards which I would then send to friends and family for their Mass intentions. I loved receiving beautiful thank you notes from the Fathers afterwards knowing that I was in their prayers and that I was also offered up in their Mass intentions with other MIC supporters.
    This is the 2nd time I listen to this and each time I have made a better confession. Thank you Father for always explaining the Catechism of our Holy Mother Church. May God uplift Father Seraphim to the Communion of Saints one day (officially)! God bless you and the MIC Association alway.

    Thank you Fr. Chris for explaining clearly the role of the Confessor, Confessee and seal of Confession. So many lives including innocent lives of children have been destroyed by priests who have misused this blessing by telling them that their sins will be absolved and continue abusing them. I pray that God may heal those broken hearts and body and for the priests who have committed this grave sin that they may seek true repentance and live a transformed life in the love of God. This talk must be listened by all parents so that they can prepare their children better on how to identify the signs that can take them away from God.

  • @laagankaayu304

    Thank you father! I always get the goosebumps each time you give a homily with reference to historical evidences. My mom and myself were introduced to the Divine Mercy years back by my Godmother. I never had the chance to really appreciate it. In 2005, we started participating to recite the prayer every 3pm through EWTN. In that prayer video, I kept wondering who that priest was. 2015 my mom decided to erect an image of the Divine Mercy in front of our old house where people outside could see. Our house is situated at the end of the road and we just reprint the image when it gets faded.
    I didn’t really pray faithfully until I had an emotional issue since two years ago. I started praying again at 3pm and I started wondering again who that priest was and I begun thinking also where they made the video with the 12 statues in the altar. Then I started waking up at 3am and I just play the video again to pray with.
    Since last year, I have been attending online masses from several locations and one is from EWTN. One day, the online mass from the MIC just showed in UA-cam and one of questions got answered, I found the church from the video. But I still asked who that priest was. In most of the homilies, I hear the name Fr Seraphim and to pray for him. I just learned last Feb 11 in the Holy Mass that it was him in the Divine Mercy prayer video and I just cried. I felt his spirit the way I feel with St John Paul II. So much peace and I cry a lot. And I know Fr. Seraphim is in heaven and he is a Saint.
