The 12 Apostles: What Happened to Them & How Each Died - Explaining the Faith 

Thank you Fr. Chris. You make me an enlightened Catholic. May God continue to bless you. ❤

I look forward to Saturdays because of Fr Chris Alars explaining the faith talks. Thank you so much for your ministry Fr Chris, and God bless you and the marian fathers. Glory to Jesus Christ 🙏☦️♥️

Thank you Father Chris, as a cradle Catholic man who is in his 60’s, I never stop learning about my faith, my learning only strengthens my faith, hope and love 🙏✝️🦘🇦🇺

Fr Chris ,I have never heard this story but it was super funny how Jesus checkmated St Thomas into going to India. I'm a Catholic (syro Malabar Catholic) from Kerala and I'm so happy that Jesus did that to Thomas. Thanks to him, Kerala has most of the Catholics in India. I got the privilege to visit Mylapoor, Chennai where st Thomas was killed with the spear. In Kerala, there are 7 1/2 churches built by him. July 3rd is a huge feast in Kerala and it rains heavily every year on that day for the whole day (Last time we went, we were in India on that day and it was pouring). A lot of people in Kerala have Thomas somewhere in their name. My son's baptism name is Thomas.Thanks to st Thomas we are fortunate to know Jesus.

Thank you father Chris..your talks are inspirational. Thanks to you i returned to my Catholic roots after 50 years. I have a great parish and priest. So happyto be in good graces and participating in all the sacraments. God bless all your talks. I learn more from you than all my 12 years in Catholic schools.

This priest is a national treasure if not International.

Thank you Father Alar. Your teachings on the Apostles is so appreciated. God bless you always.

Most reverend Fr. Alar please do a talk about the Holy Face devotion and the Golden Arrow prayer reveald by Jesus to sr. Mary of st. Pierre in the 19th century to repair sins againt the first 3 commandments and to fight coomunism. This devotion is so important for our times.

I had so many questions about the 12 Apostles!!! And then Father Chris decided to talk about them!!! And what an enlightening talk it is!! Thank You so very very much Father Chris for giving us your wisdom so we can know our Beautiful Apostolic Catholic faith better!!!! 🙏💕🙏

The arm of Saint Jude was brought to my church last year. My church has a statue with candles for prayer. My Mother had us praying to him since I can remember because we went through non-stop trials and tragedies. I lost my entire family by various tragedies by age 41. On the day the Relic of St Jude was in my church and within the church Ireceived an impossible answer to a prayer within the church that day his relic was there. A prayer of decades to see my distant lost family and I saw my cousin whom I last saw in that church at age 11 when I was in his wedding party. He is the Father of my God Daughter. I just stared and could not speak until He said you don't recognize me? Praise God Thannk you Saint Jude.

Thank you Fr. Chris , I didn’t hear that before , my Catechism is just basic , I grow up in the catholic school but my faith and believe in God , the Holy Spirit and Mary the Mother of Jesus , Thank you Fr. Chris for making me one of the Marian Helper ,. More Power to your service , God Bless you and to all the Marian Priests and the congregation , “Jesus I Trust in You !” 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥📿📿📿🤓🤓🤓

Fr your explanation of the Holy Spirit in the last 15 minutes of this video was the most amazing I’ve ever heard. Thank you !

I have found that THOSE who REBUKE The Bible for being "written BY MEN", are the FIRST to read, recommend, & endorse, VOLUMES of "SPIRITUAL" SELF-HELP BOOKS "WRITTEN BY MEN" who DO NOT KNOW and/or DO NOT BELIEVE In Jesus Christ AS GOD!! (These are The Devil's Dangerous Deadly Authors) We pray for THEIR MASSIVE CONVERSION. Thank you Fr. Chris, for another Vital True Catholic Life Lesson!!❤

I'm not 30 minutes into a replay of this talk and already wishing Father could spend an entire Saturday talk on each of the Apostles!😅 I know I'll be replaying this many times. Thank you so much, Fr Alar and team!!❤

He chose the foolish of the world to shame the wise! Love that ❤

Just when I think you’ve given your best you produce another best! Amen

The story of Peter meeting Jesus while try to flee Rome made me teary.

I would love to hear Father do a video from the words of Jesus “Their are many Mansions in my home, if there were not, I would tell you so”

Thank you, Fr. Chris, on the great talk about the lives of the apostles that helps us to understand our role when Jesus calls us for a mission. I believe it’s very necessary to say our yes daily to Him in every little opportunity given to us, so as to build up our courage, confidence and deepen our faith in words and deeds. Because we are weak, we have to train to focus our minds and hearts on Jesus’ way, listen attentively to His voice and imitate His own life that we may live in His saving grace.

Thank you Fr. Cris Alar for these great talk. May God bless you 🙏 🙏🙏🙏

Fr Chris. Alar, this overwhelming ,. Eye Opener and further Verified the unbroken link ,of the Catholic Faith. Thanks. Fr. Chris Alar 🙏🏼👍🥱☝️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Father Chris for coming to St. John the Evangelist Church in Maryland.

In Mexico Saint Jude Thaddeus is not forgotten at all, in fact, he is the most venerated saint of all the apostles. He is the patron saint of impossible causes and his feast day is a huge celebration. We call him San Juditas and his image is very much recognized by his green tunic. In Mexico San Judas is very much loved and respected, not at all forgotten! We have never related him to Judas Iscariote, the other one... Thank you Fr, Alar for your wonderful lectures, I enjoy them very much.

This is one of the finest Sermons I've listened to regarding the Apostolic age. Thank you Father Chris. 🙏.

I learned so much from this video… I never knew any of this even going to Catholic school my whole life! Thank you so much for sharing :-)

@Fr. Alar I pray you'll be inspired to do a talk about Armenia, the First Christian nation our saints our struggles. Thanks for mentioning Sts. Jude and Bartholomew, the patron saints of Armenia, also you mentioned St. James Cathedral, which is an Armenian Orthodox Church that is located in the Armenian Quarter, is now at risk of losing thirty percent of our land to the Jews. The Armenian Catholic Church in Jerusalem is located at the 4th Station of Via Dolorosa, I received all the sacraments of initiation at this Church, which is called Our Lady of Spasm.

I love ur talks! Two weeks ago the martyrs go hand and hand with this talk I love it!

Thank you father for discussing 12 disciples… greeting from philippines

Gracious and humble thanks to Our Blessed Lord, Our Lady and the Holy Spirit and my most caring and loving Guardian Angel for bringing me back to the One, True, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. The shattered pieces are being put together again.

Father Chris Alar thank you for your insight and inspiration in details for The 12 Apostles: What Happened to Them & How Each Died

I remember seeing the painting of the death scenes of the 12 apostles somewhere else. Fascinating talk 👍 God bless

Once again Father Chris another informative talk you just keep hitting them out of the park! You all ways have my attention👀🦻

" THANK YOU AND ALL THE BLESSINGS TO YOU FR. CHRIS FOR THIS ' POWERFUL TALK ' ON THIS EPISODE OF EXPLAINING THE FAITH --- WHAT AN ' ENLIGHTENMENT AND WISDOM ' TO OUR CATHOLIC FAITH, AMEN ",,, 🙏🙏🙏💓💓💓✝️✝️✝️

Thank you Father Chris❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

Father Chris I know I will always learn something new, but I really and truly enjoyed this presentation so, so much⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Just when I think I’ve heard your best talk, you give us something like “ The Twelve Apostles…...” BAMM 👍🏻Your knowledge on each of the 12 apostles plus Judas is superb⭐️. In my opinion, you should be writing the screenplay for The Chosen, because what it presents pales by comparison to the historical education, you gave us in 90 minutes. (I realise it has a different intent and there is some benefit, but if anyone wants to learn about the REAL life of Jesus and his apostles, all he must do is listen to this talk. In fact, I’ll be sending it to my trad friends). Again, listening to you wrapping up I know the Holy Spirit was working in you. I’m at complete loss for words to express my profound gratitude for all you do. God bless you.

That was probably the best explanation about Judas that I ever heard and I can take this to my confirmation class as we enter into the Passion of our Lord. I am often asked by the students more about Judas but never knew how to fully tell them why he betrayed our Lord, now I do! Thank you Father, God bless you!

May God continue to guide and inspires you father!We love you!

Thank you, Father Chris, for your FIAT! And thank You, Our Sacrosanct Holy Trinity, for our Marian priests, who in love inspire us & instruct us & give us Your blessing!

Love this video❤❤ I am praying for more people to go back to Jesus’s apostolic church, especially those who sincerely looking for the truth 🙏🏼

Thanks, Fr.Chris. This was very informative. May our God bless you always 🙏 ❤🙏

Wow. Just wow. I so loved this teaching. Thank you Fr. Chris. We ought to invoke the holy spirit in everything we do. Come to think of it, there was a clear change in the apostles after the holy spirit came to them.

Excellent talk on the Apostles, Father. Thank you. Oh, and I am going to become a Marian Helper.

An amazing ministry and thanks for your homily, Pastor Alar ✝️

Thank you for Fr. Cris for this inspiring talk. We went to Rome for a pilgrimage and visited St. Peter's tomb, passed by Tiber River and St. Bartholomew's Church. Your teaching is as always enriching. God bless you!

God's judgement awaits the murderers of the saints. God Bless them. Their faith in Jesus is an inspiration.

Thank you Fr Chris for the beautiful way you bring to life the truth and meaning of our Catholic faith. The story of the Apostles brought them to life in a way that I never heard before. Blessings

Thank you Fr. Alar for your teachings of the Disciples of Christ. We learned a lot ftom you and May God the Holy Spirit be with you always in your Ministry. 🙏❤🙏

Thankyou 💕 This week this Topic was on my Heart - Thankyou for these informative Inspiring educational Teachings of our Faith - Bless you Father Alar - Nurse Constance - Glendora CA

Fr Alar, Thank you for being an excellent tool of the Holy Spirit. Your hard work is so evident and you're right there with Fulton Sheen as my "go to" guys for spiritual learning and growth.

Thank you and God bless you for this opportunity to learn more about the apostles plus all the effort and devotion you put in your presentations to bring us closer to God. You Marians teach us how much God loves us and try so hard to bring us closer to Him. 🙏🏼

Spiritual food! Thank you Fr. Chris

Thank you Father Chris Alar for such an educational talk. What a gift you are. Thank you for sharing all of this information about the apostles. It is very interesting. God Bless you always! 🙏

Oh my they all died a horrible death, which I didn't know until seeing this short video. So much Evil back then, which still can be found today. They all suffered as almost as Jesus did, but for other reasons. How can human beings be so cruel, so much Evil it sicken me. I pray to our Lord every day and night. This world needs God so badly, even back then they needed God. The Apostles were trying to show them the way. In doing so they give up their life for God our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope to go to Heaven when my time comes. I want to be with Jesus and His Holy Family. In Jesus' name Amen...🙏

You know the world beats us over the head for our faith but you do some digging and you see it always has. Theres something massive in the deaths of the apostles and the earliest saints. They believed to the point of martyrdom. Something i pray for daily. I want that level of faith and seeing those walk that path before me helps me get closer to that level. Its honestly whats kept me Catholic. People like Saint Peter or Saint Paul. Such inspiration.

Thanks Father Chris, All for the Glory of God!! Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, enkindle in us the fire of your Love!!! Again and again!! ❤️

Im sorry, I was writing associated with another channel. I hope that I will "follow" Jesus & give up my life for the Lord. I believe that I would because I know where I will go. I'm a born-again Christian, so I know I will go to heaven & meet my Lord & and Savior Jesus Christ. I'm looking forward to it. However, I'm nervous about the dying part. May God bless you all.

I really appreciate All the episodes of living divine mercy God bless father Chris Alar amen

The Holy Spirit consecration book will happen as/when it's meant to happen. (His timing is perfect )🙏✅️- looking forward to it 👍

I watched this for the second time. I visited some of the places during our Marian Pilgrimage in Europe. In Basilica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, Zaragosa, Spain where our Blessed Mother bilocated and appeared to St. James. In Rome, where St. Peter and St. Paul were imprisoned; St Peter's Basilica and his tomb, Tiber River and St Bartholomew's Church. In Basilica de Santa Justina in Padova where the tomb of St. Luke was enshrined. I learned so much from you Fr. Chris Alar and your Explaining the Faith Series plays a big part in my faith as Catholic. I've been listening to you for 4 years now! 🙏✝️

Thank you Father Chris for continuing to teach us all. God bless you. I love the apostles

Though the intercession of st. Jude my son is alive. He had great doctor but doc admitted it wasn't her.

Thank you Fr. Alar for the great lessons on the 12 Apostles. Increases my understanding of each one of them .

Thank you for another wonderful talk Father Chris 😊

Lord Jesus Christ, thank You for Your Grace to persevere.

Thank you so, so, very much Father Chris Alar. God bless you and keep you safe at all times. Deo gratias.

You should be the next Pope! You brought me back to Catholicism after atheism and later on mormonism

Absolutely love your teaching talks, Fr Chris!

Saint Jude's arm relic traveled to Verona New Jersey Dec. 2023. Father Carlos Martins gave a wonderful talk. An unbelievable experience
