Listen "Grown-Up Catholicism: Voting & Political Engagement"
Episode Synopsis
The Grown-Up Catholicism series continues with an episode on voting and political engagement. As in each episode in the series, this one is descriptive not prescriptive in that I'll model my own discernment on these issues with scripture, contemplation and prayer but I'll never direct your grown-up Catholic choice as that's between you and the Lord! I hope this episode is a blessing to you, thanks for giving it a listen.
