The Secrets of the Eucharist - Vinny Flynn

Vinny Flynn
Vinny Flynn talk about “The Secrets of the Eucharist” Based on the book "The 7 Secrets of the Eucharist"
  • Jesus is alive
  • Christ is not alone
  • There is only one mass
  • It is not just one miracle
  • We don´t just receive
  • Every reception of communion is different
  • There is no limit to the number of time you can receive
This is the first Mary Foundation talk based on a book. Pope John Paul II referred to the Holy Eucharist as "the greatest treasure of the Church," and yet most practicing Catholics have received very little in-depth or inspirational theological insight about this critical aspect of our spiritual lives since our school days.

Mr. Flynn's "secrets" are actually a series of surprising principles, insights, and "hidden" truths, presented together for the first time in one exciting talk. All seven secrets are based on truths found in the Bible, the writings of the Saints, the Catechism, and recent teachings of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict. These truths have always been embraced by the saints, Church Fathers, theologians, and mystics, but have never before been presented together, and rarely in such a meaningful and accessible way.

This talk also includes two "bonus secrets" about Our Lady's relationship to the Eucharist which are not found in Vinny Flynn's book. Vinny Flynn will show you how reception of the Eucharist can be a life-changing experience the very next time you receive Holy Communion.
John 6:53-56 So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; (54) he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (55) For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. (56) He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.

Answering Protestant Questions about the 7 Sacraments - Karlo Broussard

Protestant questions about the 7 sacraments
In this two part talk, Karlo answers the most common Protestant questions about the seven sacraments. He gives an explanation of how all 7 sacraments can be found in the pages of God's Holy Word.

Karlo instructs the Catholic in a how-to approach for dialoguing with Protestants and proving the biblical testimony of the Catholic understanding of the 7 sacraments.

Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Communion

Where in the Bible does it say that Baptism acctually saves us and transform the soul, as the Catholic Church teaches?
How do we know that the water in John 3:5 is not the amniotic fluid of the mother, but is the waters of Baptism?
Where in the Bible does it say anything about an outpouring of the Holy Spirit that is Distinct from Baptism?
Why do Catholics believe that the Eucharist, i.e., the bread and wine of the Last Supper, is truly the body and blood of Jesus and not just a symbol?


Confession, Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony and Holy Orders

Why should I go to some man for  the forgiveness of sins when I can go straight to God?
Where in the Bible does it say that Jesus transferred power to fogive sins to men?
Did the apostles ever recognize or practice the forgiveness of sins?
Is there any evidence in the Bible of the Catholic practice of anoiting sick people with oil?
Why doest´t the Catholic Church allow for divorce and remarriage in the case of spousal infidelity such as Jesus teaches in Matthew 19:9?
Where does the Bible say anything about a miniterial priesthood that is superior to the baptized priesthood?
