Catholic Spirit Radio

Dive into this thought-provoking conversation in an episode of "Being Catholic" on Catholic Spirit Radio with Hosts Bob and Lynn Johnston. They warmly illuminate how power dynamics play out in politics and the Catholic Church. Leveraging the theoretical perspective of the United States Constitution, Bob outlines how the founding fathers intended to delineate government control and citizen power.

This discourse addresses the relentless struggle for power within politics and religion and investigates how such dynamics affect everyday citizens. The remarkable role of the Catholic Church is highlighted as an influential entity separate from the state, an aspect leading to the evolution of Western civilization. The conversation will arm you with invaluable insights into the power dynamics at play in state politics and the Catholic faith while instigating contemplation about the world around us.

Tune in and enrich your understanding as we extrapolate how, in absence of a united Church, Western civilization could potentially crumble.
