Hello, and welcome to Focus, the Catholic Cancer's podcast for Living Understanding and Defending

Your Catholic Faith.

I am Psy Kelly, your host, and one of the things we need to live better, understand better

and defend better.

So, we're going to cover all three in this episode is the sacrament of confirmation.

Well, one of the reasons we have to defend it is there's a general lack of understanding

about it.

And certainly our Protestant brothers and sisters will say to us, well, where is that

in the Bible?

And why do you have this thing as is this a tradition of men?

And even many Catholics are a bit baffled by how do we even talk about confirmation?

What is it?

So, that's what we are going to get into.

And maybe the one benefit of that is we will live our confirmation graces more fully

if we understand it better.

But certainly, one benefit will be able to explain it better to the kids when they ask

about it and to our Protestant brothers and sisters when they ask about it.

Here to help us do that is Simone Riscala, who is an affiliate apologist here.

I'd love saying that that Simone is an affiliate apologist here at Catholic Cancer's.

And she told me just before we started, she's the director of program growth.

She's the director of program growth at Endow, which is what, what's Endow Simone?

Endow Endow stands for educating on the nature and dignity of women.
