Ep. 105 | Can the Pope Get It Wrong?

from Meditations · host Called to More

Can the Pope get it wrong? In this meditation, Fr Gavan unpacks one of the most misunderstood teachings in Catholicism: papal infallibility. He explains exactly what it means, and crucially what it does not mean, looking at the specific conditions required, the famous Roma locuta, causa finita of Saint Augustine, and Saint John Paul II's solemn declaration on the ordination of women as a clear example of infallibility in action. A clear and clarifying guide to a teaching that is far more precise, and far more comforting, than most people realise.🔴 THIS SERIESMeditations | Ep. 105Meditations is a weekly podcast with Fr Gavan Jennings produced by Called to More.
