Dr. Antonio shares his insights about our changing church leaving behind the days of church attendance through blind obedience and fear of hell. Today's Catholic - those who still attend church - do so out more by looking forward to the community experience. Many groups are organizing their own parishes due to the shortage of priests. This along with small faith communities are the way of the future.

Interview with Sr. Simone Campbell regarding voting as a Catholic Christian 30:09

5 years тому30:09

30:09

So many Catholics have been taught that voting is a single-issue responsibility. But Pope Francis has advised voters not to ignore injustice or act as though one issue is more important than others. Pope Francis makes it clear: abortion is not the only issue that matters in choosing a candidate. Equally sacred, he says, are the lives of the poor, those already born, the destitute, the abandoned and the underprivileged, the vulnerable infirm and elderly exposed to covert euthanasia, the victims of human trafficking, new forms of slavery, and every form of rejection. After listening to this interview, you are encouraged to check out the Catholic Christian voting scorecard: https://networkadvocates.org/2020election/scorecard/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

In this episode, Sister discusses the coming 2020 presidential election. She points out the similarity of the healthcare plans proposed by the various candidates and how it is primarily cost that distinguishes them from one another. Understanding this will hopefully unite Democrats behind Joe Biden, the likely nominee for the Democratic party. She also addressed how Catholic Christians learn to make "prudential judgments" about applying the church's teaching to politics? it is not up to church hierarchy to tell Christians how to vote. With well-formed consciences, it is up to each of us to make that determination for ourselves as to the moral good of our country. Sister shares the need for us all to be multi-issue voters focused on the common good for all. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

It discusses its perspective on such critical issues as divorce-remarriage, birth control, and the LGBT issue offering less emphasis on church rules and a greater realization of the need for compassion as families struggle in today’s world.

Horan, OFM where Father offers an introduction to the Joy of Love.

Tina Beattie, a professor of Catholic Studies at Roehampton University in London, discusses the major challenges facing women in the Church today. She evaluates the setbacks of the papacies of John Paul II and Benedict for women. While Pope Francis is not doing all that many of us wish he could be doing for women, she feels he has created an openness in dialogue on this issue and her prayer is that the next pope will carry on what Francis has begun. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

Fr. Gerry shares his philosophy of being a longtime pastor of his parish and his co-founding of the Association of U.S. Catholic Priests. He later founded Elephants in the Living Room. At the biannual priests' convocation at Boyne Mountain, MI in October 2003, Fr. Gerry Bechard rose to ask Cardinal Maida if they were going to talk about the Elephant in the Living Room. Cardinal Maida ignored the question and returned to the agenda. A few priests decided that some subjects needed to be discussed and agreed upon returning to Detroit to hold gatherings for that purpose. Thus, the name: Elephants in the Living Room. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

Follow up interview with Fr. Tom Reese about the outcomes of the Amazonian Synod 30:08

5 years тому30:08

30:08

Fr. Reese discusses the key topics that resulted from this synod. The Bishops voted to recommend to the the pope that already married men be ordained to serve in the most remote areas of the Amazon. This is a response to the needs of the many people who only receive the Eucharist every few months and some not even every year. They also voted to put the Church strongly on the side of global issues like protecting the Amazon rain forest, the environment, climate change, and the rights of the indigenous people living there. Recognizing that women are the ones who primarily keep the church running in the Amazon, the Bishops voted to recommend that Pope Francis reopen the commission to study the possibility of women deacons. After all, the women are already performing the work of deacons. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

Pamela Perry from Salisbury England shares her faith journey of being raised in the Anglican church and, as an adult, converting to Roman Catholicism where she has become a forceful defender for reform. She credits many of the Anglican Church's contemporary advancements to the inclusion of women in ministerial roles. Despite this, she explains how Catholicism is now in her blood and, even though she sees its flaws, she chooses to remain and speak out for the reform of the Catholic Church. She began a website, www.ParishionersCall.com , encouraging the people to assume leadership to help bring about a new kind of future for our church. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

Interview with Martha and Gert Heizer from Austria 29:55

Martha and Gert Heizer were excommunicated for holding a Eucharistic liturgy in their home without a priest. The couple openly discusses why it is necessary to have a presider who is called to a “higher state” that only sexually celebrate men could fulfill. If it is the Holy Spirit who transforms the bread and wine, then the presider is only the instrument. To move the Church forward, perhaps we need to return to the format of the Church as it was in the early days: Christians gathering in homes, in catacombs, wherever they could to love one another, support one another, and celebrate the remembrance of Jesus Christ. When they gathered, they reenacted the last supper together. There were no ordained ministers, no authority figures. There were just followers of Jesus Christ. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

He explains the reason for the cover-up was, sadly, not to protect the victims but rather to protect the image, the prestige, and the power of the institutional church. He sees little hope for the institution but finds comfort in the future of Christianity expressing itself through Small faith communities. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…

It will focus on: the victimization of the indigenous people in the Amazon, adapting Christianity and the sacraments to the indigenous culture, protection of the environment, and the possibility of ordaining already married men to the priesthood due to the shortage of priests to serve this huge area. These are controversial topics and strongly objected to by the conservatives in the Church. It is anticipated that the outcome of these topics will have an impact on the universal church globally.

Our guest points out that without women, there would be no church in Africa since women comprise 85-90% of the laity.

In this first forum we're seeking to gain a global perspective of the issues of greatest concern to Christians today. From experience, the chances are slim that we are going to reform our church from the top down. The majority of bishops aren’t listening and are not likely to even want to. We have a far greater chance of change in our church from the bottom up. We may not be able to change the minds of the hierarchy but we can change ourselves and our behavior. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/catholic-church-reform/message…
