Why Do I Have to Confess to a Priest? (#AskFrBarron)

"The Church doesn't have a mission, it is a mission. And its purpose is to cause the merciful face of Jesus to gaze upon everyone in the world." @BishopBarron

@KempsOrioles @BishopBarron @WordOnFire I am in the process of coming into the Catholic Church, and Bishop Barron’s own book Catholicism was an incredible help! I would also recommend Brant Pitre’s Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist. Praying for you on your journey!

Watching @WordOnFire’s Fulton J Sheen “Pivotal Players” episode. As usual excellent and thought provoking. @BishopBarron’s section the Mystical Body of Christ had me near tears. I realized how much I miss, due to Coronavirus, living part of my life amongst the poor for Christ.

Thanks to @BishopBarron and the fine folks at @WordOnFire for this really enjoyable conversation.
