- What advice would you give to someone suffering serious illness for many years who feels in some way like God is punishing them for their past sins and they can at times feel abandoned by God, even though they know this is not the case?
- Is it the custom at a TLM to bow to the priest and to the Processional Cross as they process past our pew?
- If asked, both the Orthodox church and the Roman Catholic church will say "Come worship here; we have apostolic succession; we are the true church founded by Jesus down to the current day." Can they both actually trace back to that time? If yes, is one "more right" than the other?

- What is the origin of the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus? How do I go about practicing this devotion?
