What is the true significance of Pentecost? Join Father Charlie Bouchard as he explores the deep theology, poetic imagery, and transformative power of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Church.
Disagreements about theology, authority, and morality have existed since the very beginning of the Church. Rather than seeing these controversies as a sign of failure, we are encouraged to see them as a journey toward the truth.
