Grace Fitzpatrick is the author of one of Amazon’s recent best sellers “The Stag with the Crystal Horns.” This book is a collection of ten fantasy stories that she came up with when caring for her children. In today’s episode, Andrew talks to her about these stories and how true fantasy stories can be both grim as well as hopeful. They highlight the value and importance of robust fairy tales for both children and adults and the increased interest of these stories in our modern age.

Today, we are honored to talk to Jayd Henricks who worked for the USCCB for over 11 years, including six years as the executive director of government relations. He joins Andrew Petiprin to talk about some of these experiences. The two talk about the institution of the Church, the USCCB, the state of our priests and bishops today, and the “liturgy wars” we are starting to see unfold in our communities. His inciteful commentary is refreshing both for his honesty and realism, but also for his insights and hope for the future of the Church. In short, he encourages the institution of the Church and her leaders to turn more to Christ in His fullness for as Pope Leo XIV states “unless we give Christ in his fullness, we give very little.”

Dr. Christopher Kaczor is the president of the American Catholic Philosophical Association, professor of philosophy at Loyola Marymount University, and author of the new book “Vital Conflicts,” which explores three of the most controversial issues in bioethics—abortion, transgender, and claims of conscience. He joins Andrew Petiprin today to discuss this new book and the bioethical issues it covers. In particular, Dr. Kaczor discusses how to have a fruitful conversation with people on these topics, and he highlights one of his favorite arguments against abortion that came from an atheist. He and Andrew also dive deeper into the mind/body problem that plagues these issues of human sexuality. This conversation and corresponding book are a great resource for people who are interested in the Catholic position on these matters and for Catholics who want to know more about the arguments behind the Church’s teachings.

Dr. David Grumett is an expert in Henri de Lubac’s theology, and today he joins us to discuss de Lubac’s work on Dei Verbum. He and Andrew discuss the continued importance of Dei Verbum in the life of the Church. David highlights de Lubac’s focus on divine revelation as an immeasurable gift that God makes of Himself to us and the importance of our faith as a response to this self-gift. David also touches on the importance of Sacred Scripture in Salvation history and the key differences between a Protestant and Catholic approach to the Bible. This episode will not only give you a new appreciation for Scripture, but also for de Lubac himself as he increasingly becomes a more well-known theologian.
