Holiness Exhortation (4/14/2018)

Pope Francis issues a new exhortation on holiness with an appeal for all Catholics not to be afraid to be saints. This week on Register Radio we talk to the Editor in Chief of the Catholic News Agency for the reaction around the Church and the world. And, Pope Francis’ apostolic exhortation on the family, Amoris Leatitia, is two years old, and it remains both polarizing and controversial. We talk to prominent moral theologian Dr. Christian Brugger about its impact and legacy.

Next week, the Bishops of the United States will meet in Orlando and consecrate America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This week on Register Radio we are joined by Bishop Kevin Rhoades to explain the importance of the consecration and how we can all take part and then Register senior writer Zelda Caldwell tells us about the remarkable phenomenon of diocesan priests living in community.
