Confronting an Unprecedented Church Scandal - Phil Lawler The Catholic Culture Podcast

    • Christianity

Catholic Culture's own Phil Lawler has written a new book addressing what he sees as flaws in the response of Catholic leaders and laity to the pandemic and advocating a different approach - Contagious Faith: Why the Church Must Spread Hope, Not Fear, in a Pandemic.
Topics covered in this interview include:
How the Church's behavior in this pandemic differs from the oft-cited response of St. Charles Borromeo to plague Why a confrontation with civil authorities must be forced to ameliorate the evil precedent set for future actions against the Church How the laity can encourage their priests and bishops to defy illegitimate restrictions on the Mass Is there a moral obligation to take extraordinary measures to protect one's neighbor from even the slightest risk of catching a disease? Catholics must be a witness to hope in the power of prayer and in eternal life Watch discussion on YouTube: https://youtu.be/aFxgWqp1J80
