So blessed that Fr. John is helping priests. Priests need help more than ever right now in this evil world. We are blessed to have a very holy priest, Fr. Jim Rafferty. Thank you Fr. John for all you are doing.
The Catholic Church brought much of the challenge upon itself by turning a blind eye to decades of pedophilia done by priests. Now in the public mind, ALL priests are seen as pedophiles. Most of the harm done to the Catholic Church was done from within. Perhaps even millions of Americans left the Church after the full extent of the child molestation crisis was known and the inexcusable cover-up from Rome. THIS was EVIL. I am Catholic and have not left, but most of the Catholics I have known have left the Church over this. They do not want their children or grandchildren in the hands of priests. If the Vatican had wanted to destroy faith in the Church, they could not have done better. Branding matters and now Americans in general associate Catholicism with Child Molestation.
Fr. John, a thought just went through my mind. I never heard of a Catholic Priest who was a stand up comedian but boy oh boy you could be the first. Just think of all the people you could reach. If you think this is a bad idea don't blame me, the thought could have been planted there by our Creator or even St. Anthony. 😂 PS.....I loved this talk between you and Fr. John. I just found his Acts XXIX website (or it found me). I watched his first of 9 talks of The Rescue Project and am looking forward to listening to the others. Myself and 3 of my 7 sisters will be discussing them after we've all had the chance to listen. Thank you.
You will likely not be surprised to learn Fr Joe did stand up comedy while attending college at University of Michigan. Following his graduation he was a comedy writer for FOX where he was part of a team that developed a sitcom. He then entered seminary and the rest is.... history in the making. Thank you for your question and for following his ministry! -Carrie

Just love this down to earth dialogue between these two great Priests no lofty dialogue just pure truthful talk.
Fantastic banter, very refreshing to hear laughter from our Priests. I’m in the UK and I haven’t heard this before. Subscribed ‼️🙏
Welcome aboard!

God actually hates men who won't have sex with a woman. Sorry.
Brilliant Q&A ❤️🔥

I meant Fr. Joe, although Fr. John has a good sense of humor too.

Candied bacon , “ talk to me “.😂😂😂
“ launch that missile” ! 😂😂😂
Which one is the priest? How absurd!
Mockery of the priesthood? What's up with this guy? When Mary speaks that many priests will be in Hell, well I'm starting to understand.
I still think Fr. John is kind of hot!
I’m crazy over Robert Barron , that man is so fine !, and yes …. Fr John !
