- Is there a supposed contradiction between Jacob's burial in Acts and in the book of Genesis?
- Does Father think of what is happening now in Russia is due to Russia not being consecrated to our Lady?
- Why is there 20 decade rosary when our lady of Fatima gave us 15?
- What is his favorite Marian apparition or scripture story about her and why? Whichever one he wants to answer.
- Does it say in the Bible anywhere that we cannot listen to a "dirty" joke if someone tells us one?
- I'd be interested to hear Fr. Wharton's vocation story and what made him join the Franciscans of the Immaculate.
- Why don't priests still do what the disciples did in the past? Raise the dead, heal the sick, cast out devils, freely you have received, freely give etc.
- How are priest's vestments and altar cloths cleaned?
