Upfront with the Archbishop
100 Episodes! Reviewing Our Most-Viewed Episodes and the “Missionary Sacrament” of Confirmation
Today’s episode is the 100th episode of Upfront with the Archbishop and we’re talking about themes from our most viewed episodes over the past two years: What is appropriate to wear to Mass, how to respond to division over Marian apparitions and the Catholic Church as the one, true religion.
We are also speaking about the mysterious theology of the Sacrament of Confirmation, which Archbishop Smith calls the “sending forth” sacrament.
