Well, as Martin Luther stated, if you’re going to sin, sin boldly. 😒. I was baptized in a baptist church and there were several scandals there during my time at that church. Some baptists I’ve known and still know have zero fear of going to hell for committing adultery or living in mortal sin, so they do whatever they please. They have no concept of venial vs mortal sins though, and I didn’t either. They embrace Luther’s quote above. Then, after there were too many scandals or messiness in the churches I went to, I joined my parents in being a t.v. Evangelist Christian from the comfort of my own home….talk about scandals! I honestly found it very very difficult to live the Christian life as a Protestant. I have really enjoyed this series. I popped some popcorn for this episode! 🍿. Thank you, Kenny, for sharing your story! I hope to hear each of your stories!
Beautiful ending, Kenny. I'd been out of the Church for 47 years when, inexplicably, Our Lady steered me home on the heels of the summer of shame (2018). I knew I had to pray for the priests. We are in a terrible mess, but ourtheology is solid and we know that Jesus will never abandon us. Thanks for sharing your story. P.S. I *still* want that coffee mug!😊
Knowing the bible doesn't guarantee the correct interpretation. That is why we have the Sacred Tradición. From the first century to now, very few changes.
Dear@@brianmelville520, you are right. Scott Hahn agrees with you, and is another convert to the Catholic Church. His point is that the Bible is full of stories of people trying to follow God, stumbling, being disciplined, and following again. People have not changed, just because we now see the Fullness of the Gospel in our Savior Who accompanies the Church through the centuries. And isn't this true?
1. I broke down and watched The Apostle last night. 😬 2. Scandal just sucks - it’s everywhere and unfortunately many of us have scars from it that we don’t even talk about. I can empathize. 🙏🏻 3. GOD BLESS FR. DAN! 🙌🏼
The banter you guys have adds a special dimension ... was used to getting a clear linear story from other sites ... but gradually am appreciating the adjustment and healing journey you all share. Thank you for the interviews.
Humility is so hard for humans to comprehend fully. Our Pride causes so many people to be self righteous. I remember as a child going to catechism classes the sisters always reflected on that important virtue and I needed to ask what it meant. It always struck with me since then.
This is truly heartbreaking to hear because I know so many people that I love who are caught up in this very difficult journey of finding the "right" church to believe in. If only I could get them to listen to this one episode.... Would that make a difference? I don't know.
@Gia4 just another day of delightful "anti-catholic" drivel adorning the comment section of Kenny's videos. It's like a treasure trove of 'orignal' wit and wisdom 🙄😄 @Kenny- thank you for continuing to press forward with sharing your testimony- great episode! Also, you're more charitable in the comment section than I could ever be.
Excellent series and this episode touches things that are painful but nevertheless true, and man, these discussions are so important. God bless all three of you guys.
@@greglogan7706 Sure do it then. Oh wait, u won’t. The Catholic Church goes thru years of study to make someone a saint. St Thomas more was klld by King Henry Vlll. 1535. The Catholic Church made him a saint 1935. I seriously doubt the church u go to Was around in 1535.
It’s a very disturbing and frustrating thing to hear from people who are not Catholics and talk about scandals corruption’s and what ever else that they can say,but there’s one obvious thing that they don’t understand about the Catholic Church and that is that when there’s some type or or types of corruption being done in the Catholic Church people don’t have the slightest understanding that it’s not the Catholic Church as a whole doing or causing corruption,it’s simply certain individuals or individual that is doing it for it’s not the whole Catholic Church.Furthermore Jesus exposes in the scriptures about how his One True Church is going to be with countless people in it in the whole world,Jesus never said once in the scriptures that his whole or entire Church is going to all faithful and obedient to him,in fact he points out in his parable’s that there’s going to be numerous problems. I just want to thank all three of you Holy and Just Catholic Men for your expertise of all things that you all present on your video it’s Excellent to learn of and absorb Yeah Alleluia Deo Gratis Amen 🙏 🐑🕊️✨🔥
0:28 Jesus came with a sword to divide even families. Jesus said " birds have nests.foxes Have holes, the son of Man has no place to rest his head " that's the price his followers pay.
@@jimmalloy7279 did not his disciples have families also. Even today same those who leave their Judaic upbringing and accept jesus as their Messiah,same happens .
@frederickanderson1860 Yes, but to follow Him. If others, even those whom you love, don't follow Him there will be division. Jesus calls for all to be one theologically, in Him. St. Paul taught that "you are all to believe the same things." My point is that sin is not the price to pay to follow Him. The divisions in Protestantism are sinful themselves. The fact that they are not Catholics is sinful. Maybe I misunderstood you, but it seemed you were saying that the divisions in Protestantism is the price Christians pay to follow Him.
Paul and Barnabas didn’t start denominations or polarized movements with disparate theologies and doctrines. There are times when two people should not do ministry in the same locale. But the division of schism and divergent “christianities” (which is what we find in evangelical Protestantism) is an animal of a different kind from what happened with Paul and Barnabas.
@@KennyBurchard I came into the church on April 13, 2021 at the age of 71 after being through all the things you shared. I hav e really enjoyed your shows. At some time, I would love to chat with you about a dilemma I currently enjoy. :) I say that with tongue in cheek. A primer is that I still love my EV Baptist church while now in the Catholic Church.... Makes for many Church services throughout the week.... More to come if you ever have time to chat or dialogue.

2000yrs and still going strong.
Those in Christ now can reject Christ still.
Saints cannot reject Christ. You fail
Once again.
The “Holy and apostolic Church” is holy by virtue of the Eucharist, not by men.
Good stuff

But remember he started one Church and prayed for it to remain one.

Regarding choosing Him over families who disown you because of Him. He did not mean His followers would be divided is what He meant, right?

What about Paul and Barnabas's spit? Sin? and God used it to further the kingdom. Strange how that works isn't it?
