D.C.’s Cardinal Gregory on the Synod, Pope Francis and our political climate

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. Want to advertise your school, ministry program,
