Join us as Fr. Chris Alar explains how Advent is a penitential season like Lent, as we prepare ourselves for the three comings of Christ: the Incarnation, the Second Coming, and the coming of Jesus into our hearts through the Eucharist.

Many believe that all good people will go to Heaven when they die, saying, “I'm fine. I never killed anybody.” Well, Jesus' words in the Bible and the Diary of St. Faustina say something a bit different. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains that Heaven is not a prize for those who are just good, but for those who are active disciples of Christ. Then hear the story of Hearts for Music, an inspiring group that brings children and adults with profound disabilities together through the universal language of music and compassion.

At one time or another, most people have said things that would not be considered 100% accurate. Some have told outright lies. So what does the Bible and the Church say if there is a time ever allowed to do this? What if it is only a white lie to protect someone or to not offend them? Is it ever justified? What is the danger of lying? Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains this very practical topic.
