Only 50% of Catholics Believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Only 50% of Catholics believe in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. That is according to a recent poll by EWTN and Real Clear Politics. Co-author of "What We Believe: the Beauty of the Catholic Faith," Dr. Marcellino D'Ambrosio, joins to talk more about that poll number and whether he is surprised that only half of respondents say they believe in the real presence. Also, 38% of respondents said they think it is just a symbol. Dr. D'Ambrosio shares why he thinks that is. In "What We Believe" he discusses the importance of family, especially when it comes to passing down the faith. The co-author of the book tells us more about that. He explains how parents can continue to teach their children that the Eucharist is the real presence of Christ. D'Ambrosio fills us in on why he thinks it is so important for Catholics to discuss what we believe. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
