What do you say to a cradle-Catholic who doubts the doctrine of the communion of saints?

Well, here's what I said in response to Ed, a recent caller to my "Open Line" radio broadcast (Thursdays from 3-5 p.m. ET). He also had doubts about the bodily Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, so we talked about that as well. To listen, click here , or click the image.





If you'd like to acquire a copy of my book on the communion of saints, Any Friend of God's Is a Friend of Mine , I'd suggest to go first to your local Catholic bookstore. If you don't have one near you, you can get the book here .
