A reader asked me if I would further explanation of something I wrote yesterday. In that article, I shared that I recently heard a podcast hosted by a couple of young priests. In this episode they said that the Church asks us to confess serious sin (grave matter) regardless of knowledge and free will because we aren’t capable of discerning our own culpability in any given situation. They also went on to say that the faithful can reasonably expect God to free them from habitual grave matter in this life.
