Question Corner: Is non-alcoholic church wine valid for consecration?

Jenna Marie CooperJanuary 29, 20254 min read
Canon 924 is telling us that the wine, which is to become the blood of Christ, must be something that can truly be considered “wine” in a strict sense.
Question Corner: What is a consecrated virgin?
CommentaryQuestion CornerVocations

Question Corner: What is a consecrated virgin?

Jenna Marie CooperJanuary 22, 20254 min read
Consecrated virginity is a unique vocation for women in that it is centered in the local diocesan church rather than a particular group or religious community.

Question Corner: Is kneeling to receive Communion allowed?

Jenna Marie CooperJanuary 15, 20254 min read
Receiving holy Communion while standing is the local norm for the United States, but this doesn’t mean that those who choose to kneel for Communion are doing anything wrong or “illegal.”
Question Corner: Why do we baptize infants, and why was Jesus baptized?
CommentaryQuestion Corner

Question Corner: Why do we baptize infants, and why was Jesus baptized?

Jenna Marie CooperJanuary 8, 20254 min read
On a practical level, through Catholic baptism, infants become official members of the Catholic Church, which among other things qualifies them to receive the other sacraments.
Question Corner: Why is Mary’s perpetual virginity so controversial for Protestants?
CommentaryQuestion Corner

Question Corner: Why is Mary’s perpetual virginity so controversial for Protestants?

Jenna Marie CooperJanuary 1, 20254 min read
The church has constantly taught the belief in Mary’s perpetual virginity from her very foundation, this teaching has also been somewhat of a “hot topic,” even in ancient times.
Question Corner: What is the point of the Mass reading about the genealogy of Jesus?
CommentaryQuestion Corner

Question Corner: What is the point of the Mass reading about the genealogy of Jesus?

Jenna Marie CooperDecember 18, 20244 min read
God uses the lowly, the humble and the unexpected to achieve his purposes. It perfectly sets the stage for the greatest “surprise” of all, that the King of Kings should come to us in humble circumstances, born of a virgin and laid in a manger.
Question Corner: Could Jesus sin? If not, was he truly human and free?
CommentaryQuestion Corner

Question Corner: Could Jesus sin? If not, was he truly human and free?

Jenna Marie CooperDecember 11, 20244 min read
If we consider sin as a turning away from God or breaking God’s commandments, then it would seem to be a logical impossibility for Jesus to sin. Jesus, as God, cannot turn away from or betray himself. And we know that Jesus never did sin in actual fact.

Question Corner: Can my son be baptized?

Jenna Marie CooperDecember 4, 20244 min read
In a beautiful way, the church’s law in this area echoes the words of Jesus himself: “Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these” (Mt 19:14).

Question Corner: Does marriage transcend death?

Jenna Marie CooperNovember 26, 20244 min read
As our Catholic funeral liturgy reminds us, for God’s faithful “life is changed, not ended” with bodily death; and by analogy we can also conclude that although the love of spouses may be changed into something different from specifically married love, this does not mean that this love no longer exists.
Question Corner: Is Dec. 9 a holy day of obligation this year?
CommentaryQuestion CornerWorship & Sacraments

Question Corner: Is Dec. 9 a holy day of obligation this year?

Jenna Marie CooperNovember 20, 20244 min read
The solution for competing solemnities is to transfer the liturgical celebration of the non-Sunday holy day to the first subsequent available date. Thus, in the year 2024, the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is celebrated in our liturgy on Monday, Dec. 9.
