#12263 Catholic Teaching on Cremated Ashes, Saints’ Relics, and Infant Baptism - Karlo Broussard

01 Jul 2025

Description

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we tackle some of the most thought-provoking and commonly asked questions about the Catholic faith. Topics include the biblical basis for Mary’s sinlessness and the Assumption, as well as how to explain the word “Catholic” despite it not appearing in Scripture. We also explore the Church’s teaching on the respectful handling of cremated ashes versus the veneration of saints’ relics. Listeners ask how to understand Acts 2:38–39 in relation to infant baptism and seek guidance on restoring hope during spiritual dryness and doubt in the power of prayer.
