Ep. #211 – Taking the Sacraments Seriously w/ Michael Gormley
Summary
What are the sacraments? Why do Catholics add sacraments to the simple faith of the New Testament? Do sacraments constitute an earning of salvation? How does a new ITC document shed light on these ideas? Michael Gormley joins us to discuss these topics.
Guest Bio
Married to his college sweetheart and father to four children, Mike balances his full-time parish work with speaking and traveling. In evangelization and discipleship training, his main task is bent toward unifying personal faith with a sacramental and biblical worldview. If Christ is truly present in the Eucharist of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, then that summit of Christian faith has to be found in every inch of Scripture. And it is. Leading parish missions, youth conferences, and diocesan events, Mike Gormley helps Catholics find Jesus Christ and make Him alone the Lord of their lives.
