End of Time Prophecies (7:59)

Dear Father Josh,

I have some controversial questions that no amount of my research will ever clarify, so I turn to my favorite podcast for answers.  Thank you for continuing to answer our questions and faithfully guiding us pilgrims as we trudge our way to eternity, and becoming saints. One of my questions is this- what are your thoughts or the Vatican’s thoughts regarding Father Michel Rodrigue’s messages of the supernatural battles between angels and demons and his end of times prophecies?

Praying Novenas ( 22:01)

Fr. Josh, love your show and all you do.  Your great ministry is noticed by many, keep it up.  My question is about novenas.  Are they a good idea?  I hear a lot of stories from friends about novenas they prayed or the answers to them.  I don’t want to doubt the legitimacy of any of them, but some of them seem very forced.  Additionally, often times it can seem as though the person is putting God or the saints into a box and forcing them to answer their question more or less, it almost seems superstitious.  What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance,

Apostolic Succession (26:35)
