Description
Has the Church changed its teaching on Limbo? Will we ever have women priests or married priests? What is the origin of the feast of Mary, Help of Christians, and the Miraculous Medal? Does a Communion Service satisfy the obligation of attending Mass on Sundays? In Question Time, Fr Flader draws on more than 40 years of experience to answer questions on everything Catholic: doctrine, the sacraments, moral life, prayer and devotions. The book is written in an easy-to-read style and contains a wealth of information, invaluable for anyone who is interested in the Catholic faith or who is in a position to hand on the faith themselves: priests, teachers, catechists, parents, RCIA coordinators, sacramental program coordinators, recent converts, and more.
Reviews / Votes
I strongly recommend this excellent faith resource. -- Most Reverend B.J. Hickey, Archbishop of Perth He explains the Church's teaching and practices in a straight-forward way without any spin. The information is very up to date, including references to the works of Joseph Ratzinger Benedict XVI. A great resource for handing on the faith. -- Tracey Rowland, associate professor; dean, John Paul II Institute for Marriage and Family, MelbourneMore details
