In this episode, we discuss the Sacrament of Confession and Absolution (Reconciliation) and why repentance is central to the Christian life. We examine the biblical foundations of confession, the meaning of true repentance as "metanoia" (changing one's mind and direction), and how confession relates to baptism and the Eucharist. We explain the roles of contrition, faith, and humility in confession, and clarify why private confession offers unique spiritual benefits beyond corporate confession. Practical guidance includes what actually happens during private confession, the priest's role in absolution, and why reconciliation with both God and neighbor matters. Confession is not a legalistic performance but a grace-filled return to our baptismal calling—a life of continual repentance and growth in God's love.
