Bishop Frank Caggiano agrees with Pope Francis: We need a listening church

It’s bishops week on Jesuitical! Ashley and Zac unpack several stories surrounding U.S. bishops in the news: Archbishop Jose Gomez of Los Angeles, Bishop John Stowe of Lexington, Ky., Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco, and Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago.

That all leads into a conversation with Bishop Frank Caggiano of Bridgeport Connecticut, who unpacks his understanding of what Pope Francis is after in calling for a “synod on synods,” and more broadly, what it means to have a church that listens.

  • ‘The Church Must Be Political’
  • Cardinal Cupich: Pope Francis’ Latin Mass reforms are necessary to secure Vatican II’s legacy
