Canon Benjamin Norman, ICKSP, was ordained in 2018. He currently serves at Most Holy Rosary Chapel (St. Vincent's School For Boys) in the Archdiocese of San Francisco. In Today's Show: How do we respond if we turn to God, but still don't get everything we want? A passage in Matthew says that the Lord gave the same sum of money to 3 individuals. One buried the money. Did he go to Hell? ​​Is it ok for priests to smoke cigarettes? Can you explain a little about the different schools of spirituality within Catholicism, and how one can choose one that aligns with their own spirituality? Is there a different missal used for the ICKSP? Why does Leviticus 27:19 forbid shaved heads, cut-off beards, and tattoos? How can I support a struggling friend without risking my own limited funds? Is "Call to Action" a safe organization for Catholics to get involved with?
