Is the sacrament of Confirmation really found in Scripture? In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we tackle one of the most common questions about Catholic sacramental theology. Karlo Broussard explains the biblical roots of Confirmation, where it shows up in the New Testament, and how early Christians understood the laying on of hands and the gift of the Holy Spirit. If you’ve ever wondered how to explain Confirmation to your Protestant friends—or just want to understand it better yourself—don’t miss this segment!
