A Father’s Universal Map for Angela

from Echoes for Angela Hosted by Ryan MacLean

Season 1, Episode 36 In this episode, we explore what the word Catholic originally meant: universal. Instead of asking how to erase differences between religions, philosophies, or cultures, we ask a different question: How do we faithfully preserve the best of humanity’s witness? Using stories, Scripture, history, and simple examples, this episode explains how wisdom can be received, tested, translated, and handed on without losing its identity. Buddhism, Daoism, Islam, Judaism, atheism, and the sciences each developed unique insights through generations of human experience. Rather than throwing those treasures away, Catholicity can serve as a library that gathers them, examines them, and preserves what is true for future generations. Made especially for Angela, this is a gentle introduction to the idea that love sometimes looks like careful listening, faithful stewardship, and making sure the children inherit more than we did.
