Dr. Bergsma believed for most of his life that confession was a human rule, invented by the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages. He thought, “Why would you confess your sins to a mere man?” In this talk he describes how he came to a different point of view, through his experiences as a Protestant pastor in spiritual warfare.

What does it take to be effective in the Catholic life? Is it enough to go to Mass once a week and confession once a year? Or should lay Catholics be trying to pray the whole Liturgy of the Hours every day? What practices can help a regular Catholic grow without being unrealistic?

Authors are writing New York Times’ bestsellers claiming that the Bible is corrupt myth and evolution somehow proves there is no God. What is the Catholic response? What do the Bible and the Church teach about the origin of the universe, life, and humanity?
