Episode Description from the Publisher

Pope Leo says Vatican II’s liturgical reforms made the Mass more accessible—but did they? The Posse examines the Pope’s comments and asks whether the Church’s liturgical battles are entering a new phase. Meanwhile, a traditional community of religious sisters faces suppression after 24 years in the Diocese of Columbus, with Rome citing unexplained “formation issues.” And at Lourdes, the controversial mosaics of disgraced Jesuit artist Marko Rupnik are finally being covered. Plus, another historic Catholic church burns in Canada as attacks on churches continue to raise troubling questions. 👉 Subscribe to Arroyo Grande for in-depth conversations on culture, faith, art, and meaning.
