This week on Jesuitical, Zac and Ashley share their conversation with Cardinal Wilton Gregory on the role of a church in a polarized society. As the Archbishop of Washington, D.C., “the epicenter of division,” Cardinal Gregory has devoted himself to bringing people together across vast political and faith-based differences, lending profound insight (and humor!) to this live conversation, which was hosted by Georgetown University's Catholic Social Thought and Public Life and Leadership Roundtable. They discuss: Cardinal Gregory's conversion as a boy and life as a priest Watching people come together through the synod, from diocesan meetings to the universal session in Rome The cardinal's advice for young people who feel disengaged from politics During Signs of the Times, Zac and Ashley are joined by one of Jesuitical's assistant producers, Delaney Coyne, to break down a recent debacle surrounding an A.I. priest. They cover the laicization of Catholic Answers' “Father Justin” and discuss the kind of insights this technology can—and can't—provide.

On Aug. 19, 2014, the world watched in horror as the American journalist James Foley read a script prepared for him by ISIS terrorists, who filmed him from an unknown location in the Syrian desert. Mr. Foley, who had been in ISIS captivity for almost two years, was then beheaded by his captors. That is how Diane Foley learned that her son, who had been kidnapped in Libya on a previous reporting trip, would not be coming home this time. In the new book, American Mother, Diane teams up with Colum McCann, an award-winning and international best-selling author, to tell her and her son's story. Both authors join Zac and Ashley this week for a powerful conversation about grief, forgiveness and perseverance. They discuss: How Diane's son James discovered his vocation as a journalist  Why Diane decided to meet with one of her son's killers  How her Catholic faith sustained her through James's years of captivity and after his death In Signs of the Times, Zac and Ashley discuss a new book of interviews with Pope Francis, in which he discusses his relationship with Pope Benedict XVI and the conclave that elected him and his predecessor. Plus, Cardinal Wilton Gregory calls President Biden a “cafeteria Catholic” during an appearance on CBS's “Face the Nation” on Easter Sunday, and the Society of Jesus releases a strongly worded statement on the war in Gaza.

Terence Sweeney, a philosophy professor from Villanova University, joins Zac and Ashley to chat about the hugely popular program—why people love it, what it leaves out and what Catholics who don't participate can learn from it. They discuss: - The absence of communal Lenten practices in today's church and how Exodus 90 tries to fill that void - Exodus 90's shortcomings and the dangers of spiritual meritocracy in ascetic practice - What all Catholics can take from Exodus 90 this Lent In this week's Signs of the Times, Zac and Ashley are joined by Christine Lenahan, one of America's O'Hare Fellows.

If you're still Catholic, there are presumably things you love about the church. But it can be tempting to focus on the negatives: the scandals, the boring homilies, the lackluster music. This week, Zac and Ashley are doing something a little different: talking about why they love the church with Bishop Donald Hying of Madison, Wis. at a special live recording at St. Thomas Aquinas parish, they discuss: - How Bishop Hying's love for the church changed when he became a bishop - The saints, the sacraments and the Catholic imagination - How to balance love and hard truths in pastoral work In Signs of the Times, Zac and Ashley discuss a street artist known for his paintings of Pope Francis (and who now has the Vatican's official stamp of approval) and a new document from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith that reminds priests that when it comes to administering the sacraments, they need to stick to the script.

On December 18, the Vatican's doctrinal office released “Fiducia Supplicans,” a declaration that allowed priests to give simple or pastoral blessings to couples in irregular situations, including those in same-sex relationships. This week on “Jesuitical,” Father Alex Santora, pastor of Our Lady of Grace and St. Joseph parish in Hoboken, N.J., joins Zac and Ashley to explain how “Fiducia Supplicans” is being received in his parish.

They also dive into a recent poll from Gallup on Pope Francis' approval ratings in the U.S. (it is an election year, after all) and explore how our country's ideological divides might impact our view of the pontiff. After the interview, Ashley and Zac welcome another one of Jesuitical's assistant producers, Delaney Coyne, to share about her experience as an O'Hare Fellow at America.

This week on “Jesuitical,” Zac and Ashley welcome John Martens, a professor of theology and director of the Centre for Christian Engagement at St. Mark's College at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver to shine a light on the Bible passages that have shaped Pope Francis' papacy.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - The Vatican investigator who uncovered allegations of sexual and spiritual abuse by Jesuit artist Father Marko Ivan Rupnik says the claims are true, according to a letter he sent to Italian priests obtained by the Associated Press. Bishop Daniele Libanari also said the women Rupnik is alleged to have abused have “seen their lives ruined by the evil suffered and by the complicit silence” of the Church, the AP reported Monday. He urged the members of the hierarchy who hid his crimes to “humbly ask the world to forgive the scandal.” Libanori's letter comes on the heels of revelations in the past week that Rupnik, a Slovenian priest well-known for his mosaics that adorn chapels and churches around the world, had been excommunicated for abusing the sacrament of confession. The Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which handles sexual abuse cases, declared the excommunication in May 2020 but lifted it that same month, reportedly after Rupnik repented. The Jesuits, meanwhile, are asking any other potential victims to come forward with claims, the AP reported. Stay tuned to Catholic News Agency dot com for updates to this story. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/253118/report-vatican-investigator-says-father-rupnik-and-hierarchy-s-complicit-silence-ruined-victims-lives Pope Francis has appointed Monsignor Juan Esposito-Garcia and Father Evelio Menjivar-Ayala as auxiliary bishops of the Archdiocese of Washington. As auxiliary bishops of the Archdiocese of Washington, Esposito and Menjivar will assist Cardinal Wilton Gregory in the episcopal duties of the archdiocese while holding the full rank of bishops themselves. Originally from Chalatenango, El Salvador, Menjivar, 52, came to the US as a teenager to flee violence. He attended Saint John Vianney College Seminary in Miami and the Pontifical North American College in Rome and was ordained to the diocesan priesthood in 2004. He has served as the pastor at Saint Mary's parish in Landover Hills, Maryland, since 2017. He is fluent in three languages: Spanish, English, and Italian. Esposito, 48, was ordained a diocesan priest in 2008 and has served in the Dicastery for Bishops in Vatican City since 2018. Born in San Luis, Argentina, Esposito is also fluent in Spanish, English, and Italian. He attended seminary and earned an undergraduate degree in Argentina. After immigrating to the US, Esposito earned a master's of divinity and a master's of arts degree in moral theology from Mount Saint Mary's Seminary in Maryland, and a licentiate and doctorate in canon law from The Catholic University of America. As a canon lawyer, Esposito's previous assignments include being a judge on the archdiocesan Metropolitan Tribunal as well as the judicial vicar for the archdiocese. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/253114/pope-appoints-two-new-auxiliary-bishops-to-archdiocese-of-washington Today, the Church celebrates Saint Dominic of Silos, a Spanish monk who in the eleventh century renewed the spirit of the monastery of San Sebastian in Silos, reforming its structure, its finances, and its works of charity.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Cardinal Wilton Gregory announced Friday that the Traditional Latin Mass will be restricted to three locations in the Archdiocese of Washington. Starting September 21, the Extraordinary Form of the Mass will only be allowed to be offered at the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in Washington DC, Saint John the Evangelist in Silver Spring, Maryland, and Saint Dominic in Aquasco, Maryland. The new protocol requires priests in the archdiocese to obtain permission to offer the Ordinary Form of the Mass ad orientem, “to the east” in Ecclesiastical Latin, in which the priest and the congregation together face the tabernacle during the Mass. Weddings and baptisms in the Extraordinary Form will not be allowed in the Archdiocese of Washington under the new limitations, which will be reviewed in three years. Gregory's announcement of the new policy came less than a week after the anniversary of Pope Francis' promulgation of Traditionis custodes, a motu proprio which placed sweeping restrictions on the celebration of Mass using the 1962 Roman Missal, also known as the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, the Tridentine Mass, and the Traditional Latin Mass. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/251850/cardinal-gregory-latin-mass-restrictions The US House of Representatives voted 228-195 to pass a bill Thursday that would establish in federal law a right to access, use, and provide contraceptives. The move responds to the Supreme Court's recent decision to overturn Roe v Wade. The legislation, pro-life leaders caution, has broad implications that extend past contraception and could go so far as to protect abortion drugs. The vote comes after the House voted in favor of a bill on Tuesday that would federally recognize same-sex marriage, and provide legal protections for interracial marriages. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/251844/right-to-contraception-act-us-house-passes-bill-with-implications-for-abortion-religion Today, the Church celebrates the Feast of Saint Mary Magdelene, one of the most prominent women mentioned in the New Testament. Some scholars identify Mary Magdalene with the sinful woman who anointed the feet of Christ with oil in the house of Simon the Pharisee. Others associate her with Mary, the sister of Martha and Lazarus. Some believe the three figures to be one person, while others believe them to be three distinct individuals. What the Scriptures make certain about Mary Magdalene is that she was a follower of Christ, who accompanied and ministered to him. The Gospels record her as being one of the women present at Christ's crucifixion. In addition, she was the first recorded witness of the Resurrection. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-mary-magdalene-309

Pope Francis has appointed Bishop Shelton Fabre as the next archbishop of Louisville, Ky. Bishop Fabre is one of two Black U.S. Catholics serving as archbishop, along with Cardinal Wilton Gregory, the archbishop of Washington, D.C. He comes to Louisville with years of pastoral experience, first as the auxiliary bishop of New Orleans from 2006 to 2013 and then the bishop of Houma-Thibodaux in Louisiana from 2013 to 2022.  Gloria Purvis welcomes Bishop Fabre to the podcast to discuss a range of issues affecting the church and Black Catholics today, most notably the sin of racism. Bishop Fabre calls this time “a watershed moment for our country [and] our church” and encourages those Catholics who don't know how to have courageous conversations on race to visit their pastor first and share their desires to help and learn.  They also discuss the importance of listening sessions for Black Catholics experiencing prophetic anger in response to the evils of racism today. The bishop believes that both the work of justice and prayer have equal roles to play in the transformation of our society. “Laws have an important role to play in overcoming racism,” Bishop Fabre says, paraphrasing the Pontifical Council for Peace and Justice, “but laws alone will not change the human heart.” Finally, Gloria and Bishop Fabre talk about what's next for the U.S. Bishops' Ad Hoc Committee Against Racism, which the bishop chairs.  Support “The Gloria Purvis Podcast” by getting a digital subscription to America magazine: www.americamagazine.org/subscribe.   Show Links: Open Wide Our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love - A Pastoral Letter Against Racism America Media's short documentary: This historic Catholic parish fought to stay open—and won Learn more about your ad choices.

Say what you like about Pope Francis, but he's incapable of giving a boring in-flight interview. On Wednesday, coming back from Hungary and Slovakia, he was asked about the problem of pro-abortion Catholic politicians receiving Holy Communion. He immediately launched into a ferocious denunciation of abortion, describing it as homicide, saying there was no middle way and stating that support for abortion was grounds for 'excommunication'.  Francis then slightly qualified this by explaining that these 'excommunicated' Catholics needed to be lovingly shown the error of their ways, but it was hard to escape the obvious conclusion. The Pope regards the President as barred from Communion – which drives a horse and cart through the 'don't ask, don't tell' policy of Biden's own bishop, Cardinal Wilton Gregory of Washington.  In this week's Holy Smoke, Dr Ed Condon, canon lawyer and editor of the brilliant Catholic website The Pillar, offers us an admirably lucid 'explainer' on this complicated topic. His conclusion is basically the same as mine. Though Ed wouldn't put it this way, the Pope has just thrown the fanatically pro-choice President of the United States under the bus.

The inmate had requested his pastor be allowed to lay hands on him and pray in the execution chamber. Texas has a law prohibiting chaplains from vocal prayer and physical contact with inmates inside the execution chamber. The court agreed to hear the inmate's case challenging that law. In an unprecedented joint message, Pope Francis and the leaders of the Anglican and Orthodox churches called the climate crisis a devastating injustice. The Christian leaders warned there would be catastrophic consequences for future generations, unless the world took responsibility for environmental damage. The archbishop of Washington said yesterday that Catholic President Joe Biden did not demonstrate Church teaching, when he said life does not begin at conception. Last week, Biden said that he did not agree that life begins at conception, and that he supports legalized abortion. Cardinal Wilton Gregory said that the Catholic Church teaches that human life begins at conception, and the president did not demonstrate Catholic teaching in his comments. A 70-year-old priest was shot to death in northern Haiti this week. The priest was attacked by several people on motorcycles. He was shot outside a bank, where he had just completed a transaction. The attackers did not take the money he was carrying. Haiti has seen a surge of violence in recent years, including an increase in kidnappings for ransom. Today, the Church celebrates Saint Peter Claver, a Jesuit missionary who spent his life in the service of African slaves brought against their will to South America, during the 17th century.

Cardinal Wilton Gregory, Archbishop of Washington, DC, is asked about President Biden's saying he does not believe that life begins at conception and also about Texas' new law banning abortions after six weeks of pregnancy.

The lawsuit came one day after McCarrick was criminally charged in a Massachusetts district court for sexually assaulting a teenage boy. The 91-year-old is the first U-S cardinal to be criminally charged with sex abuse of a minor. Catholics in Washington D-C are asking their archbishop to reinstate a pontifical Mass scheduled for August 14th at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. The Mass was canceled after Cardinal Wilton Gregory withdrew his permission for it, because of new papal restrictions on traditional liturgies. The cardinal has reaffirmed his decision. A new study has found that nearly 3,500 Christians were killed in Nigeria in the first 200 days of this year. This equates to roughly 17 Christians being murdered every day in the country. The report suggested Fulani herdsmen were responsible for the majority of the killings. In his Angelus address on Sunday, Pope Francis said God wants a loving relationship with us. The pope said Catholics are called to mature in their faith, leaving behind self-interest and calculation. Pope Francis made his comments in reflection on Sunday's Gospel reading, which detailed the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves. Today, the Church remembers Saint Peter Julian Eymard. The French priest was born in the early 19th century. He established a community of men dedicated to Eucharistic Adoration. The congregation also worked with the poor and helped them to prepare for First Communion.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Cardinal Wilton Gregory of Washington has reportedly withdrawn permission for a solemn pontifical Mass that was to be offered on August 14 in D-C . The cardinal reportedly cited the pope's recent motu proprio, restricting the Traditional Latin Mass . A pontifical Mass is celebrated by a bishop in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite. The Mass was to take place at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, in honor of the Solemnity of the Assumption. Cardinal Gregory has otherwise not yet applied the motu proprio to his archdiocese. The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland issued a formal directive requiring that full abortion services are available in the region by March of 2022. Catholic bishops, including the Primate of All Ireland, are lamenting the directive as unjust and gravely disquieting. Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, but abortion law is considered to be a devolved issue under the control of the Northern Ireland Assembly. But due to the suspension of the regional government, the British parliament decriminalized abortion in Northern Ireland in October 2019, and obliged the U-K government to create legal access to abortion in the region. A new report shows the toll of the coronavirus pandemic on the Church in Mexico. The report suggests Mexico has lost five bishops, more than 230 priests, and fifteen religious men or women during the pandemic. The Archdiocese of Guadalajara has been the hardest hit, with 25 priests who have died. Today the Church remembers one of its earliest popes - Saint Victor the First. Victor was pope from 189 to 199. He is most famous for decreeing that Easter be universally celebrated on a Sunday. He may have died from martyrdom.
