Some wounds stay hidden for years because people are afraid God will not forgive them.

Fr. Jason Cargo joins the BeatiDudes at the Tiny Table for a conversation about the pain people carry after abortion, the lies shame tells them, and the healing that can begin when they finally bring it into the light. He talks with Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein about what he has seen as a priest: people who stop going to church, bury the hurt, turn anger inward, and believe the wound is too deep for mercy.

But the heart of this conversation is not condemnation. It is healing. Fr. Jason explains why the truth has to be spoken with love, why mercy does not erase the truth, and why confession can become the place where someone finally hears that they are not beyond forgiveness.

The conversation also touches on difficult pastoral questions around family, boundaries, gender identity, marriage, and how to love people without pretending truth does not matter. And because it is still the BeatiDudes, there is also parish jealousy, Aggie ring theology, St. Mark’s “bomb shelter” parish, obscure Roman saint names, and possibly the worst diaper-related parish tagline ever spoken into a microphone.
