Today in The Catechism Series, we turn to the tenth article of the Creed: “the forgiveness of sins.” Fr. Paul Robinson explains how sins were forgiven before Christ, why Our Lord claimed the power to forgive sins Himself, and how He entrusted that power to His Church. We’ll look especially at Baptism and Confession, how each applies the merits of the Cross to our souls, and why the ability to be reconciled with God so readily is one of the greatest gifts Catholics possess.

Today in The Catechism Series, we continue the ninth article of the Creed with the Communion of Saints. Fr. Steven Reuter explains what this communion actually is and how the faithful on earth, the souls in purgatory, and the saints in heaven remain united in Christ. We’ll also look at how our prayers, sacrifices, good works, and participation in the sacraments can benefit others, and why growing in holiness never affects us alone, but strengthens the whole Mystical Body of Christ.

Today in The Catechism Series, we turn to the ninth article of the Creed: “I believe in the Holy Catholic Church.” Fr. Marcel Ockerse explains what the Church actually is, why Christ founded one visible society for the salvation of souls, and who belongs to it. We’ll also look at the Church militant and triumphant, the necessity of a visible head, and the four marks by which the true Church can be recognized: one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic.

In this final chapter, the focus turns from Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s public battles to the man himself. Chapter 20 looks back on the character, spirituality, and priestly convictions that shaped his entire life: his devotion to the Mass, his love of the priesthood, his confidence in Providence, and his determination to hand on the Faith exactly as he had received it. We also see his gentleness, humor, simplicity, and deep life of prayer, even as age and illness begin to overtake him. Finally, the story follows his last months, his final sufferings, and his death on March 25, 1991, leaving behind the words that summarize his life: “I have handed on what I received.” See all the episodes: sspxpodcast.com/audiobook We’d love your feedback on this series! [email protected] View this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/rvKVWbcpNyk – – – – – – – The Society of Saint Pius X offers this series and all of its content free of charge. If you are able to offer a one time or a small monthly recurring donation, it will assist us greatly in continuing to provide these videos for the good of the Church and Catholic Tradition.

Today in The Catechism Series, we turn to the eighth article of the Creed: “I believe in the Holy Ghost.” Fr. William MacGillivray explains who the third Person of the Blessed Trinity is, why He is equal to the Father and the Son, and what the Church means when she calls Him the giver of life and sanctifier. We’ll also look at His gifts, His visible manifestations in Scripture, Pentecost, and why extraordinary charisms such as tongues and miraculous healings became less common as the Church grew.

Today in The Catechism Series, we turn to the seventh article of the Creed: “From thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.” Fr. Marcel Ockerse explains the difference between the particular judgment at death and the general judgment at the end of time, why both are necessary, and why Christ will judge the whole human race in His humanity. We’ll also look at the signs that precede the Last Judgment, the final sentence of the just and the wicked, and how this truth should move us to both repentance and hope.

In this release, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre faces the most difficult decision of his life. Chapter 19 follows the growing crisis of the 1980s, the Assisi interreligious meeting, his deepening concern over the future of the priesthood, and his conviction that Tradition could not survive without bishops to ordain priests and confirm the faithful. After years of negotiations with Rome, hopeful openings, delays, and failed agreements, he concludes that the time has come to act. On June 30, 1988, together with Bishop de Castro Mayer, Archbishop Lefebvre consecrates four bishops at Ecône in what he calls “Operation Survival,” determined to pass on what he himself had received.

In Episode 8 of The Catechism Series, Fr. William MacGillivray explains three closely connected mysteries of the Creed: Christ’s descent into hell, His Resurrection from the dead, and His Ascension into heaven. What does the Church mean when she says that Christ “descended into hell”? Fr. MacGillivray explains the different meanings of the word hell and why Our Lord descended not to the place of the damned, but to the limbo of the fathers, where the just of the Old Testament awaited the fruits of His Redemption. The episode then turns to the Resurrection. Unlike Lazarus or others restored temporarily to life, Christ rose definitively, gloriously, and by His own divine power. His Resurrection is both the proof of His victory and the model of our own resurrection to grace and, ultimately, of the body. Finally, Fr. MacGillivray explains why Christ ascended into heaven, opening the way for the just and preparing the Church for the coming of the Holy Ghost. Along the way, he explores the rich Old Testament figures that foreshadow these mysteries, from Jonas and Isaac to the Exodus, Joshua, and Elias.

In this release, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre moves from preserving Tradition to rebuilding Catholic life around it. Chapter 18 follows the growth of priories, chapels, schools, seminaries, retreat houses, and religious communities across Europe and beyond. At the same time, he continues his dialogue with Rome, firmly rejecting both liberal compromise on one side and sedevacantism on the other. Through internal crises, growing opposition, and an expanding worldwide apostolate, his guiding conviction remains the same: preserve the Mass, form holy priests, strengthen Catholic families, and establish places where the Faith can survive and grow. What began at Ecône is now becoming an international work.

In Episode 7 of The Catechism Series, Fr. Paul Robinson examines the fourth article of the Creed: Our Lord Jesus Christ “suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried.” The Roman Catechism calls the mystery of the Cross one of the most difficult truths for the human mind to accept: that our salvation should come through suffering, humiliation, and death. Fr. Robinson explains why Catholics profess these events as real historical facts and why Christ truly suffered and died according to His human nature. But the episode goes beyond the historical facts to ask a deeper question: why did God choose the Cross? We consider how the tree of the Cross reverses the fall of Adam, how Christ’s humility and obedience repair man’s pride and disobedience, and how the Old Testament prefigured the Passion through Abel, Isaac, the Paschal Lamb, and the bronze serpent. Finally, Fr. Robinson reflects on the intensity of Christ’s sufferings, the fruits of His Passion, and what His Cross teaches us about accepting our own sufferings with faith, gratitude, and love.
