Priests like you are what will be people back to the Church and making young people get engaged! Great Work!

I'd never heard someone say that at one point Mary Magdalene "was the entire Church" before! That is awesome to think about! She was the first person to know about the resurrected Christ and she then told the disciples! That's so true!

Hi Father Casey, I am a Protestant theology student from New Zealand. I find I am really encouraged by your videos and educated by them as I don't know much about Catholicism specifically. May God bless you!

" what do you love, what are you good at, what does the world need" There is no simpler, precise or accurate words than these to realise one's vocation... Thank you Father.

Thank you father Casey. We need your pastoral services. May God Bless you throughout your missionary life.

Hello, I love this guy! He's great. I just became born again and I'm very curious about Catholicism. I'm reading my Bible first time at 31 after God spoke to me through the text. 💘❤️

He's one of the most open-minded priest I have met, most priests are brutal when it comes to the LGBTQ community. Fear, bias and hate guide their hearts when they preach. I find him so loving and open-minded. Peace out Fr Casey

Hi father Casey I have discovered your channel recently , I am a new catholic ( was just received this past Easter ) and I love your videos I found them both informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work god bless

I definitely love the way in which you approach the question about the role of the women in the Catholic Church! Every time I hear about this topic, it is approached in a "negative" way, trying to justify why it is not allowed to women to hold a certain service, rather than trying to focus on women can do for the Church. You gave me a new perspective, a different point of view! Thank you, fr. Casey! Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹

Excellent, Fr. Casey! Please keep this series going, I am really enjoying it. Blessings from an Orthodox brother!

Hello. I am a Catholic who is rediscovering his faith. Thanks for the video! Most of the priests I know are elderly. Though while that is good, I'm glad there are younger people embracing the priesthood. It makes the Church, to me, more approachable.

“If God is love and you experience love in your life, then well, you’re experiencing God” I love this line I try to introduce God to people at my church by drawing attention to this feeling.

Fr Casey , Please continue your evangelization through KZfaq so that you can reach more people specially the younger generation. May God continue to protect and keep you safe and that He may always deliver you from all evil and harm.

I'm sooooo happy that you love preaching Fr. Casey! We need great preachers like you!

After my life became a disaster, I realized that I was seriously breaking the commandments. I've returned to the Catholic Church.

Please do another video like this! Loved hearing your answers.

I can’t thank you enough for your videos! We recently found out about you thanks to an article in the N.C. Catholic. We’ve started watching your videos during evening prayer time. We are big fans!!! Thank you for your daily “yes” to your vocation! -a family with 3 sons (13, 11, and 9) and a daughter (7) near Raleigh, NC

Father Casey - Your videos are amazing. God bless you, and please carry on with the high-quality content in your videos. They're all remarkably exceptional. Greetings from Mexico

Raised as a Catholic, currently a spiritual agnostic. I love learning about the history of the Church and its theology, and your channel is so accessible and informative. Thanks, father Casey!

Fr. Casey, you are truly gifted. Thank you so much for this.

Thank you for all the effort you put into your ministry. Seeing your videos while scrolling KZfaq always reminds me of God and the Church

I love you father. You are not just brave but honourable. I love your approach to topics. May God bless your ministry and may you be bestowed with great wisdom to lead the flock.

You love to preach and you do it so well, Father! God Bless.

Thank you Fr Casey. I've been watching your videos for some time now and think this may be my very favorite. Maybe because it his close to home. I have been "talking in code" in confession for a long time and last week I just prayed to be open and honest before going in and blurted it out. The priest hearing me was absolutely wonderful. I seriously have been walking on clouds for for days. Thanks for your ministry!

"Jesus becomes like us, so that we cd become like him." 😍

I'm Catholic and love God❤

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gift with us. I so look forward to all your videos. Blessings.

Enjoyed your Q&A. Please do more of these. You are blessed to articulate church teaching on sensitive topics. Keep it up as you are sowing the seeds of faith. Evangelization has a curiousity component in it. Think of all those viewers you (through the Holy Spirit) have been able to connect with.

Thank you for answering my question. It's great you enjoy preaching. Fun fact, the fear of public speaking is even higher than the fear of death! Years ago, I used to hate public speaking. Thankful for the public speaking club in college and the Public Speaking Colloquium for helping me conquer my fear.

Fr.Your teachings are wonderful,if the priests teaches the Catholic faith like this one the entire world would be converted to catholism.l am radical Catholic Catechist who pationately teaches Catholic faith in relation to the Bible in my local community.And the Holy spirit has through me converted many people to the church.

Thank you Father Casey, its your responses and videos like these that make me proud to be a Catholic. Merry Christmas!

Fr. Casey, thank you for everything that you do. Even though we don't know each other, I feel like you do care about me and everyone else! You answered the God's will for me question better than I've ever heard. It was a great help with me discerning where I need to go with my life. Thank you

I'm not Catholic but I'm addicted to this channel and upon friar review. Such good content

Thank you about discussion regarding confession. Also, the sharing of His divinity was a great revelation. A good prayer life always open doors. Thank you for how the gay community should be approached. Not all can preach well however our pastors are there to be instruments, vessels of Our Lord not meant to be entertainers. Be disciples and build up the kingdom of God. Great answer. Glad you shared, keep up the great ministry Fr Casey, I am sure God is pleased. God bless you and keep you, and my prayers for all priests continue in my daily prayers.

Fr. You are so gifted in preaching truth always.i never heard you were not such a great preacher. Yesterday pray for vocations.we Daughters firmly believe God is still sending us wonderful young women. They are still out there just ask them Did you think of becoming a sister????????that works Also A priest???????

Father I loved this episode ! Great great, please do more! (in a brotherly and constructive way I would like to suggest that next time you have a similar video, that you read the questions too. Sometimes I dont look, but just listen. And I think manny people do that too.)

Well done Fr along with Fr Smcitz and Bishop Barron are great modern they preachers , using the internet to help people to understand the church and help to explain its doctrine and not just what people read about in the media which unfortunately is very anti catholic..

Thank you for a refreshing approach to answering questions about our faith!

God bless you Fr. Casey for the work that you had done so far. I did watch the funeral video. I pray for your services to the children of God & pray for all Chrétiens would practice more with the Words of God and attending regularly to the mass so all ceremony will be perfectly fine in the future. Oh also I do pray that there will be more Call on the youth to follow your path 2.

Watching from the Philippines...I really loved this priest Thank God I found this video so spiritually uplifting... waiting for more.

Thank you Father Casey 🙏🏻

I'm so sorry you had a train-wreck funeral. Try to find comfort in the fact that everyone, in every profession, has this experience. During the first English class I taught, I spoke about 150 words per minute. They were okay words, but when I was finished the class still had 30 minutes left. I laugh about it now; someday I hope you'll chuckle at these little "disasters". Your explanation of finding what God wants us to do was beautiful. Have a Merry Christmas.

Always enjoy your videos. I wish someone would do a video on HOW TO pray the liturgy of the hours. Everything I see just defines what they are, and not how one could privately pray the hours throughout the day.

Fr. Casey Cole, gotta say, you rock.

Love listening to you father. Keep up the good work. I love your passion for faith.

I was raised as a protestant. I was taught the trinity and that Jesus is God. But after much reading of the scriptures I have found so many things that contradict both of those ideas. The Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit were a conundrum especially in light of the unforgivable/unpardonable sin. Within the past few years I've dug deep into scriptures and translations to get to the bottom of it. What I found was that it was a misunderstanding or something similar. The Holy Spirit was said to be the 3rd person in the trinity. But the words used in Genesis 1 during the Creation story was actually ruach ha kodesh translated into Mighty Wind. Upon more digging it became apparent that there were 2 versions. The other version was simply the spirit of holiness. As opposed to having a spirit of anger or sadness etc. Then I found that Jesus said woe to those who call good evil and evil good. Then it made sense. It tore a hole in the Trinity view. Then I questioned the trinity entirely. This lead me to find a difference between Jesus and the Father as well. Now I can't possibly justify seeing Jesus as God. I have many verses showing Jesus not knowing things because only God knows. Then I found Jesus being mentioned separate and unique from the Father. This reasoning is not accepted by most Christians but most Christians believe that Heaven is in some other dimension and when you die you appear there. So I don't give it much credit. I would appreciate some feedback and friendly debate on the subject please.

father Casey Cole you are really very brilliant person. I am Indian catholic young man I always listening to your speech

Great message, Father Casey. Thank you very much.

Thanks for explaining everything so well. It is never too late To ask questions and get answers.

Thanks so much Father for sharing always! I find myself looking forward to your videos. God bless you.

That is also my favorite prayer of the Mass.

God bless you and your ministry. Good conversational content. I hope you continue to influence more young and old(er) Catholics into ministry.

Hi Father Casey, I wish you could preach at my Parish. I The people are so unfriendly and the priest has such a heavy accent that it is difficult to understand him. I converted in 1999 but honestly I visited a Protestant church and they reached out to my family and me. Everyone was friendly and I definitely understood the pastor. I wanted to get our son confirmed but was told it was a 3 year process for him. I mean I miss mass but the church has to change on meeting others.

Always a pleasure listening to ur videos, keep up the good work. God bless you always 😊🙏

You give me so much joy in my faith thank you father

Fr, thank you for answering my question. I'd like more information about it and would love to see a detailed video talking about this. Thank you!

This is an Awesome video God bless you 🙏 Father 😇

The Catholic Church needs to take a closer look on its approach towards woman’s equal rights within the church, that’s for sure. Glad for the service you provide with your presents and preaching here on KZfaq

Just recently I have discovered your channel Fr... I would love to see every single videos that you post 🙏 God bless you Fr🙏🙏🙏

It's really amazing and wonderful indeed. The ministry that you do with lots of love and enthusiasm by discussing and sharing your knowledge and according to the mind of the church Will surely help me as a priest to serve His people as I work in the mission of Daman in India. God bless you. May your ministry help many more people to come to the Lord.

I remember the funeral mass lol.

Hi Father Casey . . I don't know if your here anymore to answer questions .. So I will try and hope you will receive my Q. I am 62 now . . I was a damaged in a sense during my youth that took years to heal and it was from being robbed of being able to think for my self. I don't know if you can understand this but during my depression late teens I found refuge in Music. I contemplated a lot about God and life Mysteries and by the time I was 36 years old after years passed of feeling loneliness of unable to have a soul mate in marriage .. I had a amazing experience of Jesus coming into my heart taking that empty space away. it brought me back to the Church to even wanting to join . . after finding difficulties in finding a religious order i could feel i can fit in and some rejected me . . i was also always in debt owing money that also put obstacles in my way that my labor type of work could not free me from. Partly my fault to because I would spend money in wanting a good sound system that i could not afford in quality to enjoy music better. My down fall is i need to have a drink to relax me during my music sessions . . it put me on a mood level that allows me to relax with the music. . the problem is i tend to eventually drink more then i should. I do this once a week now putting time aside so as to not indulge to much. My question is . . I know i must moderate the drinking side which i am in the process of doing, but am I being unfaithful to Jesus if i put an afternoon aside to have time to relax with music, my session time that may last 3 to 4 hours. I often ask Jesus for permission to allow me but I am not aware how harden my heart is in hearing any answers. I want to love God with all my heart . . I have nothing going for me, no family of my own and while i have to work to survive i feel i need some think to look forward to that I can enjoy in a moment . . I do not live with the world ideas and it keeps me lonely from having common friends . .. many things disturbs me so i can never be clear and it bothers me if I am not being a good friend in return to him. I am a artist by nature and its the creativity art in Music artist i enjoy . . . I listen to mostly Blues type of sound tracks types of music. Am i robbing myself of salvation by spending some time for myself in this matter ? it over whelms me some times with whats going around us today as I need Gods protection against the evils & snares of Satan working through the leaders of the world. God Bless

Such a knowledgeable and gifted priest. May the Lord bless you and keep you. As a foreigner I found it difficult to be able to read the questions put on the screen in its entirety because of lack of sufficient time and I suggest to extend the time for 2 to 3 seconds more.

You should do an updated version of this. 😊

I'M GLAD I BELIEVE IN GOD! I LOVE JESUS CHRIST!🌹 🌹 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

The lord as blessed utbe with this man of God God bless seamus

I have a question: when you hear confessions, how do you choose the penance for us?

Thank you for the answer of the last question Very helpful

I’m not a catholic as I do not feel it is based upon biblical truth. However, I like this man and really appreciated his way of being. He shared a lot of encouraging and inspiring things. Thank you, Dave

Thank You Fr Cole !!!

May your tribe grow a million-fold ! ! ! ! ! 😇

We pray for the Faithfulness of our Catholic Dear Priests

God bless you father, thanks to all our holy priests

Thank you

As a protestant, God Bless You, Brother Of God!!

Hi Father Casey. I greatly enjoy your videos. They have helped me in several ways. In the future, would you consider reading aloud the questions instead of only showing the question on the screen? I am visually impaired, so I could not read the questions.

Here is my personal honest point of view.... if I wanted a married priest or a female priest or whatever... etc.... I would not be a traditional conservative.... old fashion FEMALE CATHOLIC. I just would become a Episcopal worshiper after all the Episcopal church has all that I mentioned above. About the confession it is so true. I am so, so ashammed of my sins. I know that God knows my two sins that are the most punished in His law. Millions of women do it. I know that God loves me even though I am a sinner. I know He loves me because some situations in my life that the only one who have saved me, and helped me is God. Thank so much for all the KZfaq videos Father Casey. God bless you all. Peace, and love to all.

When I was young, during mass when the priest says " Lord wash away my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin." I always thought, well if you didn't smoke you wouldn't have to wash your hands...... thinking the priest was washing away his nicotine.......

Home run Fr. Casey!

Love the ministry question , n thanks for picking up this ministry we need more priest KZfaqrs

Peace be with you Fr. Cole. Do you enjoy playing video games? Do you know of any priests who enjoy playing video games and what is your perspective as a priest about video games? Thanks and God bless you!

Blessings Father!

"Jesus came to be like us, so that we could come to be like Him" - I love this

Feels like wired magazine

I've been lost for so long and just found my way back. I dream of becoming priest and spreading the gospel and the word of God

Great evangelism Father! I think many could relate to a video on unanswered prayers. JMJ we love you. Save souls!

I receive my grace and mercy

I know it's not the same, but you should hold virtual confessions/ and church sessions. I'd donate. Modern day Catholicism. ♥️

You so well explicate the practical understanding of priesthood; but it would be good to hear more about the non-ordained friars. In the early days of the order, it is my understanding Francis gathered lay men (and women through Clare). How do they form community today with the ordained friars? What are Brothers?

Hi Fr. Casey. Could you please share your insights as to why Eve was tempted in the first place? Has this to do with Lucifer's disobedience and he knew a seed from Eve would crush him, as per the protoevangelium? Thanks so much in advance. Love your programs.

Extremely informative!

I adore him so much

Embarrassing sins should be confessed to the priest in a different parish where nobody knows you. 😄

Wonderful!

Dear Fr. Casey, I'm so grateful to God for the work you're doing, God bless you more. Being a Catholic and sharing the Body and Blood of Christ in each Mass I attend, I don't find it feasible that a Catholic should partake in any other sacrificial meat. 1 Corinthians 10:21 says it clearly. Can we share in the sacrifice offered by other religions?

You should make a video going on Reddit Catholic threads

One question answered only.. Thank you.

Dear Casey, thanks for the video. I am an Anglican priest and enjoyed it. Here are two thoughts: a. Mary Mag was really the first apostle wasn't she? Sent by Jesus to the others with the greatest news of history, That has some interesting implications perhaps? b. Please consider doing a video on the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Keep up the good work.

I have a question...I find it hard to concentrate when saying the rosary, but I can listen to Elvis gospel sungs with such intent. Can that be a substitute for the rosary?

What is your thoughts or concerns about tattoos? Can Catholics have them?
