Thank you, Father Chris. I greatly enjoyed this talk and all your videos. You perfectly explain the catholic world-view. As a catholic-convert, I pray that fellow budding Catholics see these videos. God bless all who read this comment.

There's no shame in getting excited over your faith's "powerful stuff", so don't need to apologise father. You give testimony by sharing the Truth and showing emotional ties with it. A true witness of God, I'm learning so much from you. Thank God for putting you on my spiritual journey.

This is the best ever education I’ve ever heard in my life. Your are the best teacher Fr Chris. I don’t need to go to the library and I don’t even have to research Wow! Thank God for you and God bless you Fr Chris!!!!

I praise God for the gift of this pandemic - the deepening of my Catholic faith through His messengers. I thank God for you and many other priests who untiringly shepherd us back to God, through Jesus.

Father Alars, you continue to amaze me with your vast knowledge of our faith. God bless you and keep up the awesome work :)

Thank you so much Fr. Chris! My precious father passed away years ago and he was so special to me. I grieved so hard and for a long time. It seemed that God the Father was taking something precious from me. A wise man at church said it would help to get to know God the Father. It has been a journey to really know God my Father and your teaching brought healing along with the information! Praise be to God the Father! Thank you! 🙏🏼

Fr. Alar, you are amazing! One day my friends and I will drive to Stockbridge and be there for your Explaining the Faith and hear the Holy Mass. God bless you and the whole world.

Father Chris, you have set me on fire for the Holy Sprit, I know I’m one year late but since I have found your talks I listen to them everyday, I thank God for your influence in my spiritual life. I love you and pray for you.

Thank you Father Chris for nourishing our souls.

Fr Chris, you are so blessed, I am so thankful for your talks. It has brought me from being lukewarm to thirst for God. Holy Blessed Mother Mary, please intercede to your beloved son Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour for a healing and recovery for my sister in law Janet who recently found out she has cancer and help her manage the difficult days ahead. Forgive us our sins, sinners and pour forth your unfathomable mercy on us and the whole world. I love and trust in you. Thank for the sunshines in our lives and when it's dark, we turn to you, my God who is always waiting for us. Amen

Thank you Father Chris!😇. You’ve been a huge blessing in helping me understand the Faith. It’s been a great addition to my spiritual journey. God Bless!

Fr Chris, I was away from my faith for about 28 yrs. I was so angry with the church for not allowing me to not receive my Holy Communion. After about after moving home where I grew up, I hungered so much to be apart of my faith. It was hurting my marriage, because my husband is not Catholic and does not agree with my faith. His like a lot of people grew up hating Catholics. I t finally couldn’t stand being away from my faith anymore, t told him that if couldn’t consent to having his previous Marriage annulled, that I don’t think our marriage would survive . I was acting out and being emotionally attracted to someone else. I found myself failing horribly as a woman an a holy woman and that’s why I want most of all there to be a holy and Catholic woman and wife. He reluctantly, but he did agree and we had his marriage Renald because I had never been married before and now I crave my faith. Thank you so much for these videos . It makes me want to know more. We have had our marriage blessed after 27 years and I’m a better wife and catholic women than I’ve ever dreamed of being. I know what I want now. God can only make me happy.

May the heart of Jesus be in the heart all.

WOW! Father Chris, you have opened up my mind! Thank you, thank you, thank you Lord God, our Father for Fr. Chris Alar!

Thank you Father Chris!! Your Exploring the Faith series is a gift from God!! I watch these and the shorter videos "religiously" and wow!! Your faith and love of Mary and our Lord is inspiring!

Fr. Chris, thank you so much for everything you do for us. Much appreciation for your communication and approachability; for being there for your flock extended throughout the country and the world. Prayers for your family.

Thank You So Much 🥰 You are one of God’s Gifts to the World 🙏

Much thanks and love extended to you Father for giving us Catholics more knowledge and enlightenment concerning our Faith foremost God the Holy Trinity and the bible

And less you Fr.. Alar❣️🙏 Thank Uou for all of your endless and untiring work that you do for us❣️. I am once again a practicing Catholic because of Devine Mercy and your Teachings, and I have never been this happy and at peace❤

Awesome! Especially because I just realized the Lord’s Prayer is our consecration to our Father mainly through the first three petitions. We never end learning. Thank you Fr. Chris for your excellent catechism, which enrich us more and more in our faith. Please never give up on us, we need to learn more to know our God more and love Him and serve Him better through our neighbors for love of Him. May God continue blessing you so can continue being blessed with your good work.🙏♥️🙏

when I was a grader up to high school, we used to sing that song with all our heart and pronounced it properly with blending of voices " YHWH I KNOW YOU ARE NEAR, STANDING ALWAYS AT MY SIDE, YOU GUARD ME FROM THE FOES ..." those nuns are Sisters of the Holy Spirit, taught us that song and its a good song and we sing it loudly with all our energies out. Sorry, we were innocent then ...

Terrific stuff Father!! Thank you for your hard work!! This series continues to be just amazing!! Praying for your family and always for you & all at the National Shrine!!

I feel so blessed and privileged to be taken through seminarian learning!! Thank you for your generous sharing!! God bless you!!!

Praised be Jesus Another great speach. You are like wine, getting better and better with time. Great job indeed !

Father Alar, you are the big and true voice for most of us. Thanks for your hardwork.

I'm glad I donate to the Marian society of this faithful Priest. And I get my blessed candles from there

Thank you so much Father Chris for this teaching today. WOW so powerful and Beautiful. you explain it so well. I enjoy hearing you give these talks.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. I need to listen again in case I missed something. Your enthusiasm is a real joy Father!

Father Chris Alar thank you for your insight and inspiration in details for the topic : God the Father: The Old Testament.

Thank you Father. These classes are wonderful.

Five years and no TV--love it!!

Thank you Fr. Alar God gives you a lots of love and energy to share this wonderful amazing knowledge about the Father and the old testament May God bless you everyday 🙏🙏🙏

Good evening father Chris! Thank you for your untiring messages,talks, information,apostolic deeds to all of us 🙏 God bless you more 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Father for this great learning l about our faith as a Catholic ,God bless!

Great stuff Fr Chris! Thanks! I didn't 'attend' the talks on Jesus nor the Holy Spirit and now you directed me. God bless you🙏🏽

God Bless You Father Chris. We all need this information, this truth, The Truth! Thank you.

Thanks Fr Chris :) There were parts I had to rewind and listen to twice or thrice, but the whole message/talk has been clear :) Thanks for the heads up about singing songs with "the Name". Today's culture is about selfies, self promotion, self help, self sustenance, self motivation, self esteem...a far cry from the self denial that we are called to. The promotion of self image at the expense of striving to conform to the image of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Your decision to take us to the seminary could not have come at a better time! 👏👏 Our Lord Jesus Christ asked us to pray and remain watchful, and also warned about the deceptions. The manifesto is available for all to see online, as are the interviews explaining the "chanting and invoking of spirits". Your asking us to be cautious is warranted. O Blood and water that gushed forth from the heart of Jesus, as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You. St Micheal the Archangel, Be our protection. Just one question from me; what did you mean by "God became man" ....? so that... Man becoming god? I'll use small g. I do not understand why or how the latter can come about without it being a sinful act. Please pray for me. Love and prayers.🙏

Fr. Chris, I learn so much every time! Thank you for your dedication to your seminary students! lol.. hope you got some shut eye & 🙏 for your Family ✝️

Thank you Father Chris, everything about God is beautiful ♥️Amen!

Fr. Chris I pray for you so our good Lord bless you for all your great teaching. I look toward to listening to your teaching every minute of the day. God bless you father

Thank you Father Chris You have taught me so much May God continue to bless you.

Thank you Fr. May the Good Lord continue to strengthen you in His ministry, Amen.

Thank you Father Alar for your enthusiasm, it makes us enthusiastic for God too.

GOD BLESS you FR. CHRIS for taking the pain and efforts in catechising the people who need enlightenment about our Catholic faith

I am a late entrant to your seminary classes Fr Chris but catching up. To have this profound teaching come right into our homes is too wonderful for words. It lingers on in the mind and heart and has compelled me to share these teachings. Thank you dear Father for your tremendous efforts. I know it requires a lot of sacrifice too. May the seed you sow bear abundant fruit far and wide for the glory of God. May God bless you abundantly Father so also every priest in this world.
