Christians seeking to live their faith more radically encounter many roadblocks, especially as they develop an interest in the spiritual gifts. In this challenging episode, our hosts attempt to address some of the common misconceptions that needlessly discourage Catholics in particular from embracing the charismatic renewal and spiritual gifts. Some objections addressed here include:
- It's just weird.
- What if it's fake, and I get deceived?
- What if it's dangerous or demonic?
- The saints weren't charismatic, why should I be?
- Isn't it prideful to ask for supernatural things or talk about them?
- We're Catholic, and this stuff seems more Protestant/Pentecostal...
- Charismatics are into progressive music (even "demonic rock music")
- Don't charismatics believe in a prosperity gospel?
- If all this crazy stuff is real, how come I haven't heard about it before?
