Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Marcellino D'Ambrosio addressed common misconceptions regarding the sacrament of Confession and grace during a Catholic Answers Live episode. The discussion covered various theological and practical challenges, such as how to handle repeated sins and the effects of mortal sin on receiving communion.

The episode provided guidance on several specific topics, including how to perform an examination of conscience and how to console children who feel distressed about confessing their sins. D'Ambrosio also addressed questions from non-Catholics, such as Baptists, who are interested in the value of the sacrament. Additional topics included whether Catholic priests are the only ones who can administer confession and whether a person can receive communion if they realize they committed a mortal sin after having already gone to confession.
