Convincing a Family Member of the Importance of Confirmation

Why should we receive the sacraments? How can we encourage others that these sacraments are important to our salvation? A caller wonders how she can convince her nephew, who does not want to be confirmed, that Confirmation is an important sacrament. Her husband, the nephew’s godfather, is also struggling to get through to his godson. Father Dave shares his advice. (Original Air 11-15-16)
