Questions Covered:

13:10 – I heard a skeptics’ claim saying that the predictions Jesus made about his death and resurrection were actually made up after the fact in order to make Jesus look more credible. Is there a Catholic response to that? 
21:14 – How do Christians resolve the inconsistencies between the four gospels? 
44:03 – Why should I believe in Jesus? 

Questions Covered:

05:24 – Do you think pro-life people are guilty of making red herring arguments? Do we need to change our arguments? 
14:15 – Does the Church teach that Adam and Eve did not have any children before the Fall? 
18:07 – How do I defend the Catholic Church’s claim that it’s not the schismatic Church in the east/west split? 
22:58 – What are the best defenses of Christianity as opposed to some other faith? 
30:48 – Someone in a coffee shop told me she wasn’t comfortable with me praying in public because not everyone believes what I believe and we weren’t in a Church. What’s a good Catholic response to that? 
37:10 – How do Catholics interpret Romans 9 in the context of debate with Calvinists about the elect and predestination? 
43:10 – If I follow God’s will, am I abdicating my free will, which is a great gift from God? 
48:34 – How do I explain why non-Catholics should not receive communion? 

Questions Covered:

45:15 – I’m in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. The idea of Beacons of Light is to consolidate into families of parishes to better allocate priests and resources to serve the needs of the people.

Questions Covered:

00:57 – If Calvin and Luther believe in the perpetual virginity of Mary, why, when, and who put a stop to this belief? Why was the doctrine of the Assumption defined?
04:28 – What is the Catholic justification for adding in the Filioque?
07:20 – Can you explain how Catholics should balance the worship/adoration of God and Mary?
14:17 – Where did the idea/ name for purgatory come from? And why don’t Protestants believe in it?
17:55 – I have a hard time joining together the common apologetics and the early Church history, especially with the letter of 1st Clement. When I read historians, I have a hard time connecting the two because the apologetic realm seems to be heavy and strict while the history realm tends to have a lighter take.
29:22 – I’ve learned that someone has to know that they’re committing a sin for it to be truly considered a sin. If someone was totally incapacitated, would they not be committing a sin if they’re not really aware that they are?
33:08 – Jimmy, what evidence do you have for your different opinion on the source of the Gospels?
40:15 – Could you explain the passage in Revelations that talks about Jesus spitting out those that are lukewarm? What is your opinion on those that are lukewarm in the present day?
46:19 – I’m converting to Catholicism and I learned I’m not supposed to read my old Protestant books. I know sometimes apologists read these to try to come up with ways to rebut what they talk about. Should I get rid of these or what should I do with them?
52:30 – In Matthew 16:18, if Jesus set up a visible, identifiable church, wouldn’t that prove Protestantism wrong because he protected his church from the gates of hell?
