Ask Christopher West "Wearing Grandma", "Afraid of Being Alone", & "Intercourse in Pregnancy" | ACW277
Questions answered this episode:
- I’m a teacher and the other day, one of my 5th graders walked up to me and told me he was “wearing his grandma.” He was wearing an ash necklace where he was holding the ashes of his deceased grandmother. What is the difference between the Catholic tradition of relics and keeping an “ash necklace”
- How can I tell the difference between loving someone and being afraid of being alone?
- What does intercourse in pregnancy say about the beauty and goodness of God?
