Fr. Francisco Nahoe, OFM Conv. has served the Church and the Franciscan Order in Catholic education, campus ministry, parochial ministry and catechesis. He is a chaplain at Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula, California and focuses his scholarly efforts on Renaissance rhetoric and Polynesian ethnohistory.   In Today's Show: My nephew is getting married in October. He was raised Catholic, but he and his fiancé have decided not to marry in the church. The ceremony is at the venue and will be officiated by someone who works for the venue. Is it okay for us to attend the wedding? I'd like some detailed direction regarding what a rule of life should look like for a husband/father, especially a beginner, and how to get the family (spouse and children) to start praying and reading as well. Is it possible for celibacy to attract the wrong type of men, such as those with disordered sexual inclinations? What is synodality? What are some of your favorite works of literature and what would you recommend that every Catholic should read in terms of Catholic and non-Catholic literature? Differences in translations of Psalm 78:1 My mother and I have different opinions on why Jesus was sent down to Earth. She says it was to see if man could follow the Ten Commandments, and I say it was to gather up all the sinners and bring them back to God. What is the church's stance on this? Are we both wrong, both right, or a mix of the two?   Visit the show page at thestationofthecross.com/askapriest to listen live, check out the weekly lineup, listen to podcasts of past episodes, watch live video, find show resources, sign up for our mailing list of upcoming shows, and submit your question for Father!
