Have you ever left confession feeling disappointed, confused, or unsure whether your sins were really forgiven?

In this episode of Godsplaining, Fr. Patrick and Fr. Joseph-Anthony tackle a common concern among Catholics: What happens when confession doesn't go the way you expected? Whether you've received unhelpful advice, experienced an awkward encounter, or wondered if a priest's mistake affected the sacrament, this conversation offers clarity and peace of mind.
