from On the Mark · host Peter Buckley & Mark O'Donnell

Join Peter and Mark as they discuss why Catholic professionals struggle to apply Catholic social teaching principles—like human dignity, solidarity, subsidiarity, and the common good—in their workplaces. Drawing from the document The Vocation of the Business Leader, they discuss how living a divided life leads to idolizing modern temptations such as money, notoriety (recognition/fame), and comfort, which undermine faith integration at work.
