050 Tom Hoopes: Deciphering Pope Francis

from RED-C Roundup Hosted by RED-C Apostolate

On January 3, 2018, in the first part of the show, host Dcn Mike Beauvais and producer Dr Thaddeus Romansky gave one last promotion before the upcoming RED-C Family Retreat, which took place on the weekend of January 5 and 6. Before the break, Dcn Mike also took the time to reflect on the recent Solemnity of Mary Mother of God and how belief in Mary's mothership of God is vital for all Catholics. In the second part, Tom Hoopes joined show, and the conversation between him and Dcn Mike was geared toward clearing the misunderstandings that have arisen during the papacy of Pope Francis, especially after the release of Amoris Laetitia. Tom Hoopes is Vice President of College Relations at Benedictine College, and he is the author of the book, What Pope Francis Really Said: Words of Comfort and Challenge.
