As a Protestant who has been interested in the catholic faith for the last 5 years, watching this video several light bulbs of understanding have came on!! Feeling more strongly that I want to begin the conversion process. Thank you so much Fr. Chris for dedicating your life to the service of God. I will be praying for the Catholic church and it's members. Please pray for me as well. God Bless you all.
Do it! I converted 12 years ago this Easter and never looked back. It’s the best thing I’ve done. I learn something new every day especially watching Fr Alar and many others.
God must be calling you to the Catholic faith. Hope you won't be taking too long to answer Him. From Philippines, sending you prayers for your faith-journey. Peace and all well. 🕊🕯💐🙏🙏🙏
Father Alar, it comes down to bad catechism! I am going through the process of conversion and I can tell you that they have watered down Catholicism, I know this because I’ve been doing my own research. I am coming to Christ and his one and only Church this coming Easter Vigil and I CANNOT WAIT!
Yea! Floridiansince 1994....I walked away for 20 years.... and ran back (finally!) In 2014... will NEVER walk away again! Welcome to the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church... Easter's almost here! I will be thinking of you on your glorious day!
Father, I will never leave my Catholic faith. I ALWAYS feel closer to the Lord after receiving communion and no other religion has given me or my mother such peace.
Fr. Chris, I'm the godmother of a few of my nieces and nephews, my sisters' children. One sister is no longer Catholic and the other does not like for me to tell her children what to do. Before I became their godmother I told my sister I was going to encourage them and to guide them in the faith, she agreed. I have not been allowed to guide them. Please pray for my family and me.
We just have to keep praying and God will do the rest. We all have to go through life’s journey, I n the end we will be victorious as long as we don’t give up. God is good, He hears our prayer and will answer in His Divine time. Praise God.
These conversations Father Chris had with his online date reminds me of myself 20 years ago. I was a devout Baptist who was challenged daily by a coworker who practiced Wicca. Everyday at lunch she would badger me about Christianity and the Bible specifically. She forced me to find answers to questions that I had never thought of on my own. The answers I found led me to the Catholic Church. I will be forever grateful to her that she opened up my eyes, whether she intended to or not. God has a great sense of humor and can use the most unlikely people for his greater glory 😀

Hi there. We love Fr. CHRIS' teaching isn't it . I became equipped to defend Mama Mary listening to him every Saturday. I summary I love the MIC community.
What 90 episodes and DVD set are you referring to? I recently found this channel and Father Chris because I was reading Father Gaitleys’ books and I love his talks and would love to find more. Is there a link or a place to these 90 episodes and DVD’s?
Thank you Father Chris for taking the time to be with us today online despite your busy schedules -alongside the situation with your family. You’re always in our prayers. God bless.🤍🙏🏻
Yes Our Faith has the fullness of the truth ….and many cradle Catholics take it for granted 🙁but as long as we keep praying for them ...Their hearts will be changed 🙏
I wouldn’t say people take for granted. A lot of people just do not know what they have. I know, I speak from experience. It’s important to have compassion and patience with those who lack understanding.

Fr. Chris, I enjoyed listening to you again in your Seminary Class among the many, very attentive audience. I felt I was with them, reflecting all the lessons once more and understanding them thoroughly the best I can. You’re a very good preacher and defender of our Catholic faith, whom we can always count on with so much confidence and trust in keeping our true faith alive. Thank you so much and God bless you.

Fr. Chris, I really enjoyed listening to this. Even though it wasn't live it's always still worth watching and relearning. God bless you Fr. Chris now and always. :)
By the Merciful Jesus grace you have educated more Catholics in the Faith than the entire current religious community. Priests and Bishops need to take this series. Mass education is needed to combat current modernism heresy which prevails. This only proves that the gates of HELL will not prevail against His body.
Hi Father! Thinking of you and your mom, sister, and family! I've been praying and will continue to do so. So blessed you are able to come to your family. God be and bless you all! 😇🙏
We don't know these things as lay Catholics because we don't hear these things taught from the pulpit at Sunday Mass. I have studied much but still you revealed things I have not heard as a lay person. We need more of these historical teachings. The sad part is we can't clarify these things to our protestant brothers and sisters unless we get educated ourselves.
@kevin Middleton i agree with you, more teachings need to be done.. Maybe there should be catechism for adults where they are taught more details like what Fr Chris teaches.. most people are taught catechism under the age of 10yr then thats the end of teaching. There should be an ongoing teachings beside sermons.. otherwise we become lukewarm or we Can not defend our faith fully coz of luck of enough knowledge of it.
The pulpit isn’t for learning. The homily isn’t meant to educate. It’s our duty to educate ourselves. The family unit is where you’re supposed to learn. It’s easier now than ever, bc we have all the source materials readily available to us now.
@@dorcas4035it’s bc traditionally, you learn through your family. But if you’re like me, your family isn’t very Catholic and you rely on learning the materials yourself. And you can. Nowadays we have everything at our disposal. You really only need the CCC and the Bible. That’s it.
@@ntmn8444 we are so lucky today to have so Many channels to educate us, we just need to create ample time! God have located part of our ‘major’ challenges as Catholics & filled the gap. Now we Can no longer give excuses to learning more of our Faith. I have learnt so much in the last 21/2yrs than i have ever learnt in the past.. i just Thank God for the chance🙏❤️🔥✝️
Father Chris thank you so much for your teaching. I m convinced that I should be a Catholic. I'm not baptised yet but please pray for my RCIA so that I can get my baptism.
Thank you so much Father Chris for all you do to help us deepen our faith and help us defend it! We continue to pray for you and your mom and dad… your entire family. God bless you abundantly!
I’ve listen to a lot of your talks Fr Chris which are all very fruitful. THIS ONE TOP IT ALL. !! I wish I can show this video to all who are conducting classes for RCIA and confirmations. What you explained touched the core of our faith which has been the doubts of most of Catholics especially the youth who left our church. I was touched most when you mentioned your nephew, your own godson who is lost. It’s unfortunate that we all seem to have that in our own family. I pray that they all realize that the turbo jet ( church ) is available for free to reach NY to CA ( heaven ) faster. Thank you, I pray for you and your Mom and Dad, I pray to St Padre Pio to pray for good health for you all.
Father Chris, I've used your quote before here on utube. Don't leave Jesus because of judas It says it all. Thank you Father Chris,you're certainly a blessing to us!🤍🕊🤍🕊🤍🕊
May God continue to bless you with His wisdom, perseverance, intensified zeal in your priestly vocation. God knows your family concerns and He will take care of them as you continue to work in His vineyard !
Thank you Father Chris for explaining our faith…. The young generation needs to hear this more often, I hope more priests and religious talk about our faith, educating the faithful in every different topics.
Great lecture. Father Chris. Every time I 'm learning more and more about our beautiful catholic faith. Thank you for your time and effort. God bless you with more wisdom and knowledge and good health.
I love listening to Fr Chris! I always learn something new about my faith. He is exactly what a Catholic Priest should be! Fr. Chris, May God bless you and keep you in His loving enbrace❤️
Lord Jesus and Our Blessed Mother , Please Bless and Protect this man ....Father Chris Alar , for the teachings and the works he is doing. Praise be to Jesus for this man. ALLELUIA ! AMEN . AMEN. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for that Fr. Alar. Each time I watch your classes my faith is strengthened. May God give you many more years in your vocation. We need good and holy men like you!
God bless Fr.Chris & all the priests...I've been watching & following Divine Mercy - Explaining The Faith quite some times now & I've learn something new everytime I watch this talk about our wonderful Catholic Faith...thank you, & God bless..🙏
Thank you Fr. Chris. This was a very needed refresher that every Catholic, at every stage, needs to hear; especially those wanting to leave Catholicism. 3 Ave Maria's for you. 🙏🏼❤🕊
You have made me expand my knowledge of the Catholic Faith, very helpful for so many of us and we start to grow in our faith bcz of your preaching and teaching. God is with you Fr Chris, we love you so much and will keep praying for you and your family especially your mom Rosalia. My family will pray for you and your family! God bless you always and your family!
Thanks be to God for the gift of priesthood He has given you Fr Chris. Thank you for bringing us to your seminary classes at the comfort of our homes and sharing with us your faith-knowledge, we are very blessed! May our Good Lord, bless you more in body and soul and also your family you left behind. Peace and all well. 🕊🕯💐🙏💗 🙂 🇵🇭
Thank you so much Fr Chris, I pray that someday, I can sit my family and their families down and listen to you. I emailed your Explaining the Faith throughout last year to all of them and nothing.
Thank you Father Chris and God bless you and your family. I just sent this to my son who has left the church. I pray that he listens to this. I am praying for you.
I feel so blessed to have found all of Fr. Chris’ videos. He has answered SO many questions I have had over my 40+years as a practicing Catholic. I pray my 7 children continue in the Catholic faith. God bless you, Fr. Chris!
You are on Fire, Farher , Fire of the Holy Spirit, I can see it and feel it. Thank you for the Fire of your spirit. I love our faith, and you have made me understand and love my faith more!!!!
That was the best explanation of Catholicism that I’ve ever heard thank you so much I sent it on to several people I’m not very good with words and I have trouble sometimes defending my faith because I don’t know how to explain the evil that has infiltrated our church
@Viktoria Fadey Hi Viktoria! I am surprised that you want to speak with me! I pray everyday for all people in Ukraine and for peace there. I hope you are safe. God be with you and your family.
Thank you. I recently discovered your videos and I am thoroughly enjoying them. I have always felt a calling to a devotion to The Divine Mercy since learning about St. Faustian around 2009 ❤️ Praying for you and your family. 🙏🏻
Fr. Chris I hope that everything is going as you planned, oh I should say as God has planned, and that you will be successful with this mission of taking care of your family as they need you. Don’t forget to rest too! God bless!🙏✝️❤️
Father Chris God Bless you! I heard you Preaching alliuejuila praise the Lord , I was cooking dinner and listening to you speak , I felt the holy spirit power coming out of you!! I even had an anointing of the holy spirit myself as I listened to you as I was yes!! Amen right on! Waking everyone up sitting there listening to you! It was wonderful . Topics you spoke of needed to be addressed such as saints and healing of broken hearts and abuse and who is church what is church so awesome beautifully graciously explained with power of God authority and with care compassion. IAM so glad I was obedience to listen to to your talk today. Such a refreshing course for my as I attended prayers meetings and bible studies for quite of few years ago yet I've been on on a low flame of faith due to injuries and set backs in my life obstacle s to attend church thank God for you tube video s on phone s. Such a blessing. Yes you enkindle the flame of my faith with a high flame of faith renewal . Wow! That's powerful for me. Strength and healing and Power to overcome weakness and repair my muscles and walking and power to continue on my Lenten journey with vitality and conviction to speak of Jesus Christ as He leads me . Shine bright not be put under a lamp shade. So thank you so much and such a blessing for all who heard you, I prayed also while you spoke. As souls needed healing as well. Very well done ! 😁🙏❤️🇺🇸🎼🎵🎶🥤🏜️From AZ USA Arizona Peace and Joy
I've been talking in circles for 15 years doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out religion, and this video is just hitting me like a train. All these lights are going off in my head right now.
@@DivineMercy_Official yes let me ask you a question. I dont want to go to mass because I'm afraid I'll look stupid. Are all masses exactly the same? If i watched a mass online and memorize everything the audience does, can i take that knowledge to any other mass?
Father Chris you are a true Shepard of Jesus and His Church, thank you for this message and all your classes. I have shared and will continue to share your videos. God bless you and I am praying for your Mom, Dad You and your family. May God bless you all. ❤✝️🙏🌹
Thank you Fr Chris for chatting with us even though your schedule is so hectic. Praying for your parents continued healing Pam and safe travels. God bless you your family and everyone 🙏❤️
