Reconciliation | Catholic Central

What's so important about the sacrament of Reconciliation? Why do Catholics believe that you have to confess to a priest? What's happening in that confessional? In "Catholic Central: Reconciliation," Kai and Libby explain the powerful but often misunderstood sacrament that enables us to mend our relationship with God and heal.

I haven’t been to confession in years- over a decade I think- and have been wanting to go. But all I see is a man in that booth- I have so much distrust for so many of the clergy. I know they’re not all the bad ones- but it is so hard to recover from some bad experiences. This video helps me a lot though. Thank you, Libby I love how you present the facts with that genuine smile. And Kai you bring such humor and calm confidence. You two are great. 😊

I am in RCIA and close to Confirmation. We just discussed this in Class today and I have been both excited and nervous about what this experience will be like and I have to say this video did a great job of helping me feel better about what it will be like. Thank you for making this!

Great work as always - your videos are regular viewing in my teen Faith Formation class ... very entertaining and informative

Great video! You guys are really great! Maybe your next video can explain what penance is and why Catholics use unpleasant experiences as penances or offer up penances for the souls of Purgatory. I've always liked the "hitting a car" example (In case you don't know that example: you've hit a car [sinned] so you go to the owner and say "sorry" but the car is still messed up. You have to pay for the damages [penance]. You either pay it now or in Purgatory.) Keep up the good work!

My friend is studying to be a priest.
It actually shocked me at first I thought he would pursue college. But im happy for himself. I'll just visit his church in the future. Man I miss our conversations.

[meganeloise]

Awesome videos, I learn a lot from your videos. I hope you can make more awesome videos like this one.

[mariaregina]

Okay this is your best! 💜
Love it! Did you make the cartoon?
I go every week! We injure our relationship with Jesus by our venal sins and we need forgiveness and healing for them! This can also prevent falling into more serious (mortal) sins.
Going once a week or at least once a month is very good for everyone!

Get Good with God ... before it's too late

[FlosyVera]

What about those who are not Catholics & those who coonfess their sins directly to God Almighty, aren't they forgiven íf they don't confess to a Catholic priest?

[seangerner]

@catholic central im very sorry i linked this to my students and they tarnished your beautiful comment section love from me and love from Jesus xxoo!!!

[robsask]

You mentioned the seriousness of sin. You should explain hell and eternal damnation.

"All the ways you failed yourself and others?" Don't you mean all the ways you failed God?
