Lectio: Confirmation

Lectio: Confirmation

What is the sacrament of Confirmation for? Is Confirmation even necessary if we’ve been baptized? What is the connection between Pentecost and Confirmation? Is Confirmation a biblical sacrament? Why do people get confirmed at such different ages? Join Dr. Brant Pitre as he answers these questions and more by delving into the riches of Sacred Scripture and Tradition.

Too often the sacrament of Confirmation is misunderstood, and faulty understandings of this sacrament obscure the beauty of the grace it confers. Dr. Pitre’s in-depth study will strengthen your understanding of the graces Christ gives us in Confirmation and how we might live from them more fully, taking up our crosses and bearing witness to Christ in word and deed.
