Listener-submitted questions:
* Is Lent a Catholic tradition or do other denominations have the same season?
* Why is Lent called "Lent?"
* I have attended family member's weddings in Lutheran and Pentecostal churches and found the Nicene Creed in prayer/song books. The phrase: "one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic church" is changed to read: "One, Holy, Christian church." I understood that the word "Catholic" in our Creed does not refer to the Catholic denomination but rather the universal church. Could you comment on why the prayer is changed and define the words "one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic?" Does the "o" in "one" need to be capitalized?
* There seems to be confusion as to whether or not the coronavirus vaccine is ethical despite the USCCB statement. Do you think the Vatican will weigh in?
* Can you offer specific ways to keep the Sabbath holy?
