- Gail – Last night we sang the Gloria and rang the bell continuously. Why do they ring bells like that? (03:37)
- Edda - Thank you for your impact on my life. Because of you, I have gotten so much closer to Jesus. (10:59)
- Rosemary - Thank you, Patrick. I lived with a man for years and you set me straight. Thank you so much. I have gone to Confession and can now take Communion! (15:50)
- Tony – Comment about Jesus giving Judas communion (19:32)
- Joseph – How was Judas’ betrayal necessary for redemption? (21:23)
- Joy – Before receiving Communion last Friday, I ate some pork skin on accident. Do I need to go to Confession? (28:20)
- Saul - Jesus died without being guilty of even the most trivial offense. This seems very unfair and the epitome of injustice. How was it that Jesus could choose this? (35:29)
- Debbie – I was born on Good Friday. Do I need to observe fasting on my Birthday? (41:52)
- Elizabeth - What did Jesus mean on the road to Calvary when he said, “Women of Jerusalem, weep not for me, weep for yourself and for your children” (46:40)
- Jonathan – In the Chosen, Jesus gets on donkey to go into city. I am concerned that this scene omits truth on Eucharist. (47:40)
