Bishop Robert Barron on Internet ministry, Black Lives Matter, and the art of dialogue. Ep. 147

Please tell us what you think about Jesuitical by filling out our
listener survey! It takes about 10 minutes to fill out and can be
found here. If you’ve spent any time looking for Catholic resources
online, you have certainly come across the work of Bishop Robert
Barron. The auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is
the founder of Word on Fire Ministries and has been called a
“Fulton Sheen for the 21st century.” He reaches millions of people
over social media and has spoken about God in the expected
(seminaries, Cathedrals) and unexpected (Google headquarters,
Reddit AMAs) places alike. We caught up with him to talk about his
ministry during coronavirus, attracting controversy (yes, we talk
about that Jordan Peterson interview), West Coast Catholicism and
the recent Black Lives Matter protests. This is our final show
before our summer break. We’ll be popping in the feed periodically
to share some thoughts and conversations with you, but otherwise we
will be hard at work improving Jesuitical so we can come back
better than ever in the fall. But to do that, we need your
help.  Please tell us what you think about Jesuitical by
filling out our listener survey. It will help us make the show
better and tell our sponsors more about who you are. It takes about
10 minutes to fill out and can be found here. Until then, please
keep us in your prayers. We’ll be praying for you.
