    Why Feminism Can't Be Fused with Christianity (Guest: Dr. Carrie Gress)

    Fr. Mark welcomes Catholic author and speaker Carrie Gress to discuss her powerful new book Something Wicked: Why Feminism Can't Be Fused with Christianity.

From the historical roots of feminism and its quasi-religious structure to the importance of motherhood, beauty, spiritual maternity, and the genius of women as life-givers, this episode offers clarity and hope for rebuilding a culture that honors the true gifts of men and women.
