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.

Blessed Fulton Sheen was beloved by Catholics and non-Catholics alike, and his teachings and lectures were widely viewed on both ratio and TV. But his personal life and upbringing are often overlooked. So today, Dr. Hughes talks about the personal side of Fulton Sheen—his childhood, education, and daily life. She details how he got his name, his life as a farmer, what he ate, his time as an altar server, and much more. In many ways, he is an example of an ordinary man that God worked through to do extraordinary things for Christ, His Church, and even America at large.

Fr. Dennis Brown was just a young man when he reached out to Blessed Fulton Sheen, and instead of ignoring him, the archbishop invited the future priest into his apartment to pray with him and offer words of advice.

Ben Eriksen sits down with his friend Fr. Dennis Brown to talk about his personal correspondence Blessed Fulton Sheen. Fr. Dennis recalls how his high school teacher introduced him to the teachings of the archbishop, and then how Fulton Sheen invited him into his apartment after he sent him a letter. Fr. Dennis gives some personal stories and shares the last letter that Fulton Sheen wrote to him.

Fr. Dennis and Ben also talk about the newly released Fulton Sheen title “Power of Love” which is a collection of never-before-seen writings from Sheen’s conference lectures on love. This powerful and perennial book has an ocean of metaphors that reveals the true nature and depth of love.

Dr. Bruchalski is an ex-abortionist, but more than, that he is a son of God the Father, and he joins us today to talk about sin, God’s mercy, and the future of the pro-life movement.

A repeat visitor to the Ignatius Press Podcast, Dr. Bruchalski is a well-known doctor who serves women of all ages through Tepeyac OBGYN. He has written an amazing book “Two Patients” where he describes his history as an OBGYN who performed abortions, but then later reverted to Catholicism and her authentic teachings on faith and morals.

 

However, today we will focus less on his own personal story which was the subject of our last episode with him, and instead zero in on what he learned from his conversion and years in the medical field. He and Ben Eriksen discuss his reasons for joining the medical field and how the devil slowly tempted him and misinformed him. They also discuss what parents should do when their children fall astray and what doctors should do when their patients seek immoral treatments. Finally, they examine the future of the prolife movement after the overturning of Roe vs. Wade. This is an enlightening discussion which demonstrates the mercy God offers to all of us.
