Why Confession Matters and Why It’s Under Threat

Hour 3 for 1/12/26

Drew is joined by a representative from the Arizona Catholic Conference to discuss proposed legislation that could penalize priests for honoring the seal of Confession, raising serious concerns about religious liberty and Church teaching (4:47). Msgr. Charles Pope then joins the program to explain the spiritual importance of Confession, why the seal is inviolable, and what’s at stake for Catholics if civil law attempts to interfere with the sacrament (21:56), continuing with deeper pastoral and theological insight (45:37).
