Canon Benjamin Norman, ICKSP currently serves as Chaplain of the ICKSP Oakland Apostolate at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in Oakland, California. He was ordained in 2018. In Today's Show: Should we avoid shopping at stores who give some or all of their profits to efforts that are Protestant? Should one avoid reading books or movies which characters take our Lord's name in vain? Jesus calls Peter the rock but later says get behind me satan, could you explain why? How should we react to the story of Emanuela Orlandi who went missing in the Vatican? Has any bishop made it necessary for the ICKSP to celebrate the Immaculate Conception feast on Monday? How long should a first confession take for a convert? Is crossing my legs during mass a sin? What is the process like for a diocesan Priest to join the ICKSP and how does it compare to seminary instruction. Is it immoral for a Catholic to work at a marijuana dispensary? Can I pray for those who do not pray and may be unrepentant?
