Description: Today, we're revisiting a pivotal conversation that changed the course of Jen's life and career. In 2016, during what was expected to be a routine interview with journalist Jonathan Merritt, Jen found herself speaking publicly for the first time about her views on abortion, politics, and LGBTQ+ issues—beliefs she had been wrestling with privately for over a year. While she was confident in her answers, she was unprepared for the backlash that followed. In this encore episode, Jen and Jonathan reflect on that moment and its ripple effects. Jonathan shares his own parallel journey—growing up as the son of a megachurch pastor, internalizing the “love the sinner, hate the sin” message, and later confronting his own identity as a gay man. His story, like Jen's, became public in ways he never expected, leading him on a path of deeper truth, faith, and purpose. Thought-provoking Quotes: “You told the truth. You were ready for this interview. You had actually been doing the work for a decade to be ready to answer those questions honestly. But, your PR wasn't ready.” – Amy Hardin “The best way to live is true. No matter what you think it will cost or what it does cost you, the cost is worth the reward.” – Jen Hatmaker Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Religion News Service - https://religionnews.com/about-rns/ Jen Hatmaker: Trump, Black Lives Matter, gay marriage and more by Jonathan Merritt - https://www.jonathanmerritt.com/article/jen-hatmaker-trump-black-lives-matter-gay-marriage Growing Up Evangelical and Gay with Jonathan Merritt - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-63/growing-up-evangelical-and-gay-with-jonathan-merritt/ My Saddest Good Friday in Memory: When Treasured Things are Dead - https://jenhatmaker.com/my-saddest-good-friday-in-memory-when-treasured-things-are-dead/ Love is the Game Changer of Our Faith: Bishop Michael Curry - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcast/series-24/love-is-the-game-changer-of-our-faith-bishop-michael-curry/ How to Create a Politics of Love: Lisa Sharon Harper - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcast/series-24/how-to-create-a-politics-of-love-lisa-sharon-harper/ Christian Rock Star Comes Out as Gay in Letter to the World - Jonathan Merritt - https://www.jonathanmerritt.com/article/christian-rock-star-admits-hes-gay-writes-letter-to-fans?rq=trey%20pearson Eugene Peterson on Changing His Mind About Same-Sex Issues and Marriage – Jonathan Merritt - https://www.jonathanmerritt.com/article/eugene-peterson-changing-mind-sex-issues-marriage?rq=eugene Leading Evangelical Ethicist is now Pro-LGBT (David Gushee) – Jonathan Merritt - https://www.jonathanmerritt.com/article/leading-evangelical-ethicist-now-pro-lgbt?rq=david A Faith of Our Own: Following Jesus Beyond the Culture Wars – Jonathan Merritt -  Dr. Michael Lindsay,  Sociologist & Author - https://www.taylor.edu/about/president-profile James Martin, Jesuit Priest - https://www.instagram.com/jamesmartinsj/ Guest's Links: Website - https://www.jonathanmerritt.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jonathan_merritt Twitter - https://x.com/JonathanMerritt Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JonathanMerrittWriter Substack - https://jonathanmerritt.substack.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

In this week's episode, Fred Bodimer covers Pope Francis's ambitious 11-day trip to the Asia-Pacific region, starting with his visit to Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country. The Pope emphasizes interfaith unity, urging Indonesians to foster a civilization of peace. Despite his health challenges, Pope Francis remains committed to building bridges between religious communities. The episode also highlights recent news about local parish mergers in St. Louis, including the formation of St. Peter Claver parish, named after a Jesuit priest who ministered to enslaved Africans.

In this special episode, I invite my Ba to share his remarkable journey from his experience as a Jesuit priest to leaving the religion to become a Taoist teacher. Born in 1931, Ba's early life was shaped by his mother's devout Catholicism and his admiration for Jesuit priests, leading him to leave China to join the Jesuits in the Philippines. He shares how after moving to the U.S. to study anthropology, he became disillusioned with the Western-centric approach of the Catholic Church, prompting him to leave the priesthood. We explore his post-priesthood journey, which took him through various jobs, including running a laundromat where he engaged in deep spiritual conversations, and his profound discovery of Taoism during the New Age movement of the 1980s. Ba shares how his interest in Taoism allowed him to find continuity with his previous spiritual life and how the core principles of Yin and Yang, divine energy, and interconnectedness have become central to his practice. You don't want to miss his unique perspective on spiritual evolution and his practical advice for integrating Taoism into daily life, join us for this one.  We dive into: Ba shares his early life and the strong influence of his mother's Catholic faith, leading him to join the Jesuits at 18 His decision to leave the priesthood after moving to the U.S. and his adjustment to secular life His post-priesthood jobs, including working as a mechanic, teacher, and salesperson, and the spiritual conversations he had at the laundromat Discovering Taoism during the New Age movement of the 1980s and how it resonated with his previous spiritual life Ba's insights into Taoism's core principles and his advice on integrating these teachings into everyday life And more   Connect with me and let's go deeper: Website: https://www.pohongyu.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/pohong.yu/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/pohong.yu/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pohongyu/

One of the most wonderful things that someone said in the group tonight was: “I am amazed at how simple it all is!”  And they are absolutely right in their observation. All that the fathers tell us - about the struggle for purity of heart and overcoming the passions, seeking stillness and constancy in prayer - comes down to one simple reality.  God is love and that all run but “one receives the prize without effort!” He who humbles himself will be exalted. The moment we turn the mind and the heart to God and - even prior to that - the mere existence of humility in our hearts leads God to lift us up to gaze upon him face-to-face. It is like a child who has no illusions about his self-worth or identity, but simply reaches out for the parent and is lifted up immediately in love! It is this love that the hesychast seeks above all things; the eye of the heart is constantly turned toward and seeking the Belived. What is the one thing necessary that our Lord speaks about in the gospel? Mary sat at his feet being nourished upon his words of love and his presence. This is the better part. We so often complicate our lives and spend years and decades pursuing what the false self tells us that we need or where we will find dignity and the fullness of life. In the end, there is no ladder! There is only love and the urgent longing that makes us strive for it. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:22:52 Bob Cihak, AZ: P. 230, #68   00:30:26 Anthony: There is a tension though, between a situation that is wrong which should be made right, and waiting in patience   00:33:32 Anthony: Ok, so like Abraham had a promise that took a long timevtivrealize   00:33:41 Anthony: Long time to realize   00:34:58 Anthony: Thank you   00:37:15 Fr Marty AZ 480-292-3381: be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. 1Peter 4:7   00:39:41 Julie's iPad: It's hard when you're accused of something you didn't do or say not to defend yourself.   00:51:14 Anthony: Ego is the false self.

"When you ask people who knew him to describe him, the first word out of their mouth is 'brilliant.' We throw that word around a lot but he was literally brilliant. The thing that made him so incredible was that scholars could talk to him about ancient languages but someone like me could talk to him about bass fishing and Nascar," said Karen Hall a television writer and producer of hit shows like M*A*S*H, Hillstreet Blues, Moonlighting and The Good Wife about conservative Jesuit biblical scholar Fr. Paul Mankowski, SJ, who died in September 2020. Hall's new book, The Sound of Silence: The Life and Cancelling of a Heroic Jesuit Priest, exposes the silencing of Fr. Mankowski by his religious order for airing its dirty laundry and for upholding the two-thousand-year magisterium of the Catholic Church. With the same page-turning prose that brought her singular Hollywood success, Hall reveals how Fr. Mankowski was “canceled” long before the dawn of today's pervasive Cancel Culture took root.

Welcome to “Pathway to Priesthood”—a limited audio series from the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States. In these conversations, host Eric Clayton talks with Jesuits who are in the final days of preparing for ordination to the priesthood. They reflect back on their vocation stories and experience of Jesuit formation, and wrestle with some of the biggest questions surrounding priestly ordination. On this, our final episode — at least for now — we're reflecting on what it means to be a Jesuit in a secular society. And to help round out this series, we have three Jesuit guests: C-Y Kao, Brendan Coffey and Brendan Gottschall. For all of us, Jesuit or not, questions of living our faith in the modern age are important — and we get to the heart of them in today's conversation. C-Y was born and raised in Catholic family in Taiwan. He has a background in diplomacy and foreign service. He first met the Jesuits through the Christian Life Community in Taiwan, and then again through his studies at Georgetown University. Brendan Coffey, a native of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, met the Jesuits at St. Joseph's Prep School in Philadelphia and again at Fordham University in the Bronx. Brendan Gottschall, from South Jersey, was formed by both the Augustinians and the Jesuits at St. Augustine Prep and Georgetown University, respectively. And yes, it was entirely by accident that we invited two Jesuits from Jersey named Brendan to be on the same episode. As you listen to their stories and reflections, we invite you to consider whether you or someone you know might be interested in discerning a call to Jesuit life. If so, head over to beajesuit.org. We also invite you to keep in prayer these and all of our Jesuits preparing for ordination. Ordinations will take place in the United States on June 8 and in Canada on June 15.

In this episode we hear from father David Neuhaus a Jewish-background South African Jesuit priest who is also an Israeli citizen. Fr. Nauhaus shared with us his background of growing up as a Jew in apartheid-era South Africa, and his journey moving to Israel and being transformed by his encounters with both Israelis and Palestinians. This is a very insightful and powerful conversation that you don't want to miss!  Fr. David Neuhaus, S.J.,  is a Jesuit priest who teaches Scripture in Israel and Palestine. He has been a long-term member of the Holy Land Catholic Church's Justice and Peace Commission. From 2009 until 2017, he was Patriarchal Vicar for Hebrew-speaking and migrant Catholics in the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem. Born in South Africa of Jewish German parents during the apartheid era, he has lived most of his life in Israel and is an Israeli citizen.    Article: As war begins again in Holy Land, Jesuit David Neuhaus hopes Christians can be instruments of peace | America Magazine --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/acrossthedivide/message

For our final episode of Season 6, we are pleased to welcome Fr. Alejandro Olayo-Méndez, SJ, a Jesuit priest and Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work at Boston College. Alejandro's expertise is in migration, refugees, and humanitarian interventions, especially along migration routes in Mexico. He has led small groups of Jesuits to follow the migrant route from Central America to the U.S. He shares some of the takeaways from that experience, including the challenges to traversing all of Mexico, the stories that migrants carry, and the deep spirituality of migrants. He also reflects on his experiences of celebrating Holy Week with migrants and the meaning of those services in the migrant context. Brian and Joe talk about the Paschal Mystery that is celebrated during Holy Week: the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus. It is a dynamic that we live in our own lives, and a dynamic that is revealed profoundly in the lives of migrants. Brian and Joe share the story of Luis, a migrant from Venezuela, who rose from the hardships of the migrant journey, including being kidnapped in Mexico, to eventually enter the U.S. with a scheduled appointment. Now he is living in Denver and has his drivers license, work permit, and a job at a downtown hotel restaurant. Luis is truly a success story who has overcome so many obstacles to seek safety and opportunity.  Enjoy this final episode of Season 6, and blessings on your Holy Week.

    Relebogile speaks to Father Virgilio Costa a Jesuit Priest about the multifaceted nature of the Jesuits and their significant contributions to education, spirituality, social justice, and various other fields.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For our final episode of Season 5, we are thrilled to welcome Fr. Flavio Bravo, SJ, a Jesuit priest working with us at Del Camino Jesuit Border Ministries. Flavio has been on the border since December of 2022, so he has a wealth of experiences to share from our ministry. He has a particularly strong link to the migrants we accompany since he himself came to the U.S. as a migrant, fleeing the violence in his home country of Nicaragua in the 1980's and coming to the U.S. alone, as a teenager.  The image of how we carry one another comes up throughout the interview. Flavio reflects on how we hold and carry the stories of so many migrants as they share with us their pain and suffering, their hopes and dreams. We talk about how we carry each other and lift one another up as a Jesuit community, bringing our unique gifts and talents. And we smile and laugh at stories of carrying migrants, literally speaking, when we pick small kids up and put them on our shoulders. It's all fun and games, until Joe ends up with a leaky diaper on his neck! Enjoy this final episode of Season 5, and look for us again in the new year!

Father Matthew Spencer fills in for Patrick and discusses his Thanksgiving plans that have taken an unexpected turn. Despite the stress, Father Matthew reflects on the importance of not letting worry consume us and trusting that God will come through. Listeners also call in with questions about the Catholic Church's belief in Satan, prompting a discussion on the reality of evil and the influence of the demonic. Janine - I went on a retreat with a Jesuit Priest who said that Satin isn't real, nor are Adam and Eve. What is the Church teaching on this? (11:54) Patrick - When people say follow your heart, would that be something that is pleasing to God or should we avoid that? Matt - I just heard a priest say you could still go to heaven if you commit suicide. Is that true? (26:06) Prince - Can I receive communion at a Greek Orthodox Church? Rose Mary - What would have been a good way to report this priest who denied Satin to his Bishop? Jacqueline - My husband said he would prefer cremation but I don't like it. What should I do?

This is an episode we released back in February of 2023. There's been a lot in the news around the Pope Firing an Anti-LGBTQ Texas Bishop. So we thought it would be fitting to replay this amazing conversation we had with Father James Martin! Enjoy the show!From Feb/2023:Let's face it, most people in the LGBTQ+ world know exactly how members of the faith community feel about their lifestyle. So when a prominent Priest in the Catholic faith chooses to extend love, not hate, to this marginalized group you would expect that would be met with praise from other believers. Well unfortunately that's not the story you'll hear on this episode, where Pastor Josh and Will speak with Jesuit Priest, Father James Martin. We start off the episode laying down the foundation of what is Catholicism, structural hierarchy and definition of terms. Will (Political Host) ask Father Martin about the letter he received from Pope Francis regarding the criminality of being gay. This letter came after the most recent AP article stating that the "Pope says homosexuality not a crime. . Then the topic shifts to the long running ministry of Father Martin, that involves his journey to make the Catholic Church more accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, despite loud opposition from both inside and outside the Church. We then talk about child abuse within the Catholic Church and finally end talking about the Super Bowl?Guest Bio:Fr. James Martin, SJ is a Jesuit priest, editor-at-large of America magazine and bestselling author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage, The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, and Between Heaven and Mirth.Father Martin has written for many publications, including the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, and he is a regular commentator in the national and international mediaBefore entering the Jesuits in 1988, Father Martin graduated from the Wharton School of Business and worked for General Electric for six years.

Here's a list of famous comedians who all have at least one thing in common that's relevant to this podcast: Bob Newhart, Bill Murray, Bob Hope, Chris Farley, George Carlin, Amy Poehler, Conan O'Brien, Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, Dan Aykroyd, John Leguizamo, John Candy, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Jim Gaffigan, Janeane Garofalo and John Mulaney. Did you guess? They all have a Catholic background in some way or other. Some were raised Catholic and left the church, some are still practicing Catholics today or practiced throughout their lives, and Bob Hope was a famous convert to Catholicism thanks to his devout wife Dolores. Why are so many Catholics, including a bunch of Jesuit high school and college alumni, comedians? What is it about the faith that leads performers down this road? Today's guest is uniquely qualified to reflect on this question. Fr. Jake Martin, SJ, is a Jesuit priest. He's also a standup comedian with a deep background in theater, improv comedy and the study of film. After completing his Ph.D. in film studies at Trinity College Dublin earlier this year, Fr. Jake is now teaching film at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. He also writes about culture for America magazine. And it was a recent piece on the Catholic comedian Jim Gaffigan that led host Mike Jordan Laskey to reach out for this interview. Jim Gaffigan, an alum of Georgetown University, has never been shy about including his Catholicism in his standup comedy performances, but his most recent special, titled “Dark Pale,” takes the religiosity to a whole new level. There's a whole segment in the performance when Gaffigan just tells the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe and Saint Juan Diego. There's no big punchline or payoff. He just tells the story, in his own clever way. But it felt like it could've been a homily, or at least a talk at a parish mission. Mike asked Fr. Jake about Gaffigan and for Fr. Jake's own theories about why there are so many Jesuit-educated, Catholic comedians out there. They also talked about Fr. Jake's own background as a performer and how he integrates his identities as priest in comedian into a single, unified person. Read Fr.

Our Guests for Series 13 are two mystics, each of whom we will invite twice to The Night School: Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Edith Stein.They were contemporaries in the 20th century, who in their professional lives were scholars of the highest order and who in their inner lives sacrificed much for the sake of God and for what God gave each of them to give to the world. One was a man and one was a women; one was French and one was German; one was a Catholic Christian from birth and one was a Jew who became a Catholic; one was a Jesuit Priest (the Society of Jesus) and one was a Carmelite nun; one was “hard” scientist in the fields of Geology and Paleontology and one was a philosopher; one spent his life under suspicion by his fellow Jesuits and by the Catholic Church and one was hunted by the Nazis and eventually exterminated in the gas chambers at Auschwitz; one died on Easter Sunday and one was canonized a Saint and designated by the Catholic Church a co-patroness of Europe. Both responded to the 20th century in such different ways; both were mystics of vision daring.

We speak to Barbara Walsh, who was one of two independent restorative justice practitioners who spoke to 62 past pupils impacted by Fr Joseph Marmion.

Let's face it, most people in the LGBTQ+ world know exactly how members of the faith community feel about their lifestyle. So when a prominent Priest in the Catholic faith chooses to extend love, not hate, to this marginalized group you would expect that would be met with praise from other believers. Well unfortunately that's not the story you'll hear on this episode, where Pastor Josh and Will speak with Jesuit Priest, Father James Martin. We start off the episode laying down the foundation of what is Catholicism, structural hierarchy and definition of terms. Will (Political Host) ask Father Martin about the letter he received from Pope Francis regarding the criminality of being gay. This letter came after the most recent AP article stating that the "Pope says homosexuality not a crime. . Then the topic shifts to the long running ministry of Father Martin, that involves his journey to make the Catholic Church more accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, despite loud opposition from both inside and outside the Church. We then talk about child abuse within the Catholic Church and finally end talking about the Super Bowl?Guest Bio:Fr. James Martin, SJ is a Jesuit priest, editor-at-large of America magazine and bestselling author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage, The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, and Between Heaven and Mirth. Father Martin has written for many publications, including the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, and he is a regular commentator in the national and international mediaBefore entering the Jesuits in 1988, Father Martin graduated from the Wharton School of Business and worked for General Electric for six years.

You read that right, Father AND Doctor. It doesn't get any more Loyola than that. But how does a physician with a private practice in Dayton, Ohio find themselves being called to become a Jesuit Priest on the Red Lake Reservation in Northern Minnesota? Join Katherine as she sits down with the Stritch School of Medicine's much beloved Father Doctor David DeMarco as they discuss his childhood, dual calling, and reflective practice. Dr. Hardt said it best when he described Father Doctor David DeMarco as the ideal fit for Loyola because he is “kind, a good listener, highly intelligent, a skilled physician and a person of deep faith and humble disposition”. And you'll also hear this from patients and students alike.

  As humans, we are inherently curious about how we came into this bright and complex world. More often than not, we rely on stories from our family or haphazard, poor-quality videos taken after our births in the delivery room. Occasionally, we are even left wondering with seemingly no information at all. If only there were a way we could remember what it was like actually to exit the womb and enter the world. Well, some people do remember, and these are “birth memories.” They are quite extraordinary. Listen in to this Trauma Healing Learning for ways in which you may still recall your birth memories or for ways gently to ask a young child what their experience was like. Louise and James Radde, a Jesuit Priest, will take you on a story-filled journey, which describes the elusive subject of memory, healing past trauma, power currency, generational trauma and more. You don't want to miss this rare opportunity for conversation about deep matters of the heart and social topics that receive very little attention for the perpetuation of a legacy of societal trauma.

How do you get people to the other side of trauma? In the 1980s, Father Greg Boyle served as a pastor in LA's poorest parish — which also had the city's highest concentration of gang activity. Thirty-four years later, he is known as the founder of Homeboy Industries, the largest gang rehab and re-entry program in the world. The sense of belonging created there is so strong that former gang rivals can work side-by-side in Homeboy's bakeries, cafes, and shops. In this touching conversation with the Surgeon General, Fr. Boyle offers wisdom for us all on how we can emotionally navigate past anger and bridge divides. And why he believes “kindness is the only non-delusional response to everything.” Father Greg Boyle, Jesuit Priest & Founder of Homeboy Industries Instagram: @homeboyindustries Twitter: @homeboyind Facebook: @homeboyindustries About Father Greg Boyle Father Gregory Boyle is the founder of Homeboy Industries in Los Angeles, the largest gang-intervention, rehabilitation, and re-entry program in the world. Born and raised in Los Angeles and Jesuit priest, from 1986 to 1992 Fr. Boyle served as pastor of Dolores Mission Church in Boyle Heights. Dolores Mission was the poorest Catholic parish in Los Angeles that also had the highest concentration of gang activity in the city. Fr. Boyle witnessed the devastating impact of gang violence on his community during the so-called “decade of death” that began in the late 1980s and peaked at 1,000 gang-related killings in 1992. In the face of law enforcement tactics and criminal justice policies of suppression and mass incarceration as the means to end gang violence, he and parish and community members adopted what was a radical approach at the time: treat gang members as human beings. In 1988 they started what would eventually become Homeboy Industries, which employs and trains former gang members in a range of social enterprises, as well as provides critical services to thousands of individuals who walk through its doors every year seeking a better life. Fr. Boyle is the author of the 2010 New York Times-bestseller “Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion.” His second book, “Barking to the Choir: The Power of Radical Kinship,” was published in 2017. And his new and third book is “The Whole Language: The Power of Extravagant Tenderness,” which debuted in Fall of 2021. He has received the California Peace Prize and been inducted into the California Hall of Fame. In 2014, President Obama named Fr. Boyle a Champion of Change. He received the University of Notre Dame's 2017 Laetare Medal, the oldest honor given to American Catholics. Homeboy Industries was the recipient of the 2020 Hilton Humanitarian Prize validating 32 years of Fr. Greg Boyle's vision and work by the organization for over three decades.

William Manaker, SJ, who is discerning the priesthood for the Society of Jesus and whose family are parishioners at the Basilica,  talks about what led him to the Jesuits and what the differences are between a diocesan priest and a religious order priest. He also talks about how people can incorporate one of the core elements of Ignatian spirituality – finding God in all things – into their prayer life and every day lives.

Jesuit priest, conflict analyst, peace educator, and social justice exponent, Elias Omondi Opongo, addresses the root causes of conflict in the world. Drawing from years spent in the trenches and in the classroom educating young Africans on conflict resolution, transitional justice, and peace advocacy, he makes a strong case for dialogue, diplomacy, mediation, justice, and reconciliation in countries ravaged by wars and instability. He says that a lot of our people in Africa, for instance, are being left behind because of structural injustice, and poor governance among other factors. He gives us five lessons for a more peaceful and just world.
