Scrupulosity - The Inner life - Novemer 14, 2024

The Inner Life

Father Scott Bailey joins Patrick to discuss Scrupulosity

• (2:43) what is scrupulosity?
• What are signs that we might be scrupulous?
• (7:26) how can someone who struggles with confession find peace in the sacrament?
• (13:26) Ella - I'm convinced my young daughter has a major issue with scrupulosity. She keeps asking to go to confession. She keeps saying she has to go again. She thinks everything is a mortal sin.
• Michael - I have a friend who suffers from it. He's working at dealing with it. I'm an addict in a 12 step program. I see a lot of similarities between scrupulosity and addition. AS one who suffers, if they'd use the 12 steps, it would be a plus.

(21:16) Break 1

• Iris - I had something bad happen to me when I was young, and didn't tell anyone. I fear the woman who called about her daughter earlier is dealing with the same thing.
• (24:46) Rae - If someone has been away from the church, made a confession, and then thought of something later, and was troubled by that, even though the priest said you were forgiven, should I be worried about that and take it to confession.
• How does Pride play into scrupulosity?
• Sarah - suffered from it in the past. He identified that I was dealing with it. My penance was to sit in front of the manger and contemplates God's love and mercy.
• (33:29) Mary - I struggle with repeating (starting a prayer) and don't think it's good enough and then start over. It makes it difficult to get through and finish because I'm constantly starting over.

(38:26) Break 2

• (39:27) Latasha - I struggle with repeating (starting a prayer) and don't think it's good enough and then start over. It makes it difficult to get through and finish because I'm constantly starting over.
• Who are some good saints about scrupulosity.
