087: Confronting Confusion and Division in the Church (w/ Ralph Martin)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Ralph Martin to talk about tackling division, confusion, and darkness in the Catholic Church. We talk about some of the divisions in the Church between different Catholic factions – on the left and on the right – and how these Protestant-like groups at damaging the Church. We look at how to understand sometimes unclear and ambiguous teachings from the Pope and Bishops; and how we can remain in the "radical centre" of the Catholic Church. It's a great and engaging conversation and I hope you enjoy it!Ralph Martin's new book A Church in Crisis: Pathways Forward is available now from  Renewal Ministries.For more, visit The Cordial Catholic.
