Summary

Is there a special promise on Divine Mercy Sunday that you can get remission of the temporal punishment due to sin without the typical requirements for an indulgence? Fr. Ambrose Dobrozsi and Fr. Dylan Schrader dig into this question and discuss the nature of indulgences, sin, punishment, and God's abundant mercy.
