Clumsy Theosis: Clumsy Theosis - Indulgences: Not a “Get Out of Hell Free” Card

Indulgences. A *get out of hell free* card? Money grab by the Catholic Church? Outdated and no longer in existence? No, nope, and negative. A beautiful practice in charity? A means for spiritual discipline? A gift from the Church to spur Christians on to holiness? Yep, yes, and you betcha. Listen as Richaél Lucero explains the role of indulgences in the Church today. As well as, what they are, why you’d want them, how to get them and more.
