Why we love the church, with Bishop Donald Hying

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. Jesuitical is going on the road in 2024! We hope you’ll
join us. And if you’d like Zac and Ashley to come to your city,
